@Sean-Ewington or @Chris-Maunder

This article[^] is getting flagged as spam.

The only "bad" thing I can see is he is pointing two link for downloads to a generic download-platform.
The other two links are to github (allowed).

If the article gets nuked due to quality... I am fine. I did report it as unclear / incomplete.
But I am not sure if it should be nuked for spam... at least not the account without having some words with him because I don't see it as malicious spam.

Could you have a look and talk with him (and wipe the spam reports if proceed)?

EDIT: It got nuked while writing this message. I get "We're sorry, but the article you requested could not be located."
Before I could still see the article with a "closed due to XXX" banner in the upper side.
Not sure which kind of report won at the end though. I hope you can still find it in your DB and find out the user in case you want to talk to him.

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?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
