Spam would be article? ("Point In Time Restore for Azure SQL Database", Vivek Johari)

He's been here a long time, but...
This: Point In Time Restore for Azure SQL Database[^]
From this: Vivek Johari - Professional Profile[^]
Check out the collection of links at the bottom - all to his blog / his youtube / ...

His other three 2018 articles are also very link heavy: https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/Vivek-Johari#Article[^] - the 2010 one looks OK.

Is it wrong to post links to own site?
I do not see such of rule in CP article writing FAQ.
On the other hand, there's a place on CP to post a technical blog. What you think about this?

Yeah, precisely. That's a lot of links he has there, and it's all his recent stuff.

I'm in two minds - should we summon the Seanster?

Looking at the source, I suspect this started out as a blog:

<link rel="canonical" href="http%3a%2f%2fwww.techmixing.com%2f2019%2f01%2fpoint-in-time-restore-for-azure-sql-database.html" />

I think I vaguely recall seeing it in the moderation queue yesterday as a blog rather than an article.

And that's why... if it is a blog / came as blog on the first time (and got changed to article due to the bug I describe below), then I don't report it.

If its first version is an article and is full of links... I do report it. (Sean's confirmation on this one)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

There is an active and annoying bug

If the member posts a blog but a CP Editor modifies it, it will get posted as article and then it is not possible to change it back to the type Blog.

So yes... I would summon @Sean-Ewington and let him check and wipe the reports / reinstate something if needed

That's funny. I removed links from another one of this guy's posts the other day to avoid this exact scenario. Should have checked the other posts.

Possibly abuse, but most likely it's confusion / laziness.

I'd suspect a student trying to get his homework done who doesn't understand the difference between "questions" and "answers". I'll have a word ...

Actually, it looks like a lottery scam. Google Translate didn't figure out the language, but Microsoft Translator did.

Obviously there's nothing wrong so far. But it's more like setup i think.

Hmm ... I missed that it was a paid for product (and probably his company) when it was in moderation Blush | :O

I was going to suggest that @Sean-Ewington had a word with him given he'd been here ten years and had a number of articles, but then I checked them ...
The first I checked was this: Decibel Units of Measurement with C# Framework[^] and it is the same thing (check the link at the bottom) so probably his others need a kicking as well.
