Reason for not being sure... the number of approved items.
It seems to be something open source and might be useful (I haven't checked that really in detail). But what makes the bell ring is:
User name = Product being described
All apportations have links to another site = same name as the user and the product
All apportations are literal copies (some of them shorter but still copies) of the content of that site.
User[^], example[^]
For me that would be (at least) blatant site driving. But... I wait for opinions. As I said, so many contributions approved, maybe I am missing something about the guidelines
P.S. If it is to be reported, please say. I have the list of all items ready to be posted

I have not gone through all the content in detail,but there is nothing wrong with it. Its far better than other Articles and Tips which for example,just describes how to insert data into database and a link to their site. Such contents are getting approved.
Further, if its copy paste job, then either its case of plagiarism or to be posted as blog.

I agree. I didn't say anything about the quality.

I don't think so, it is pretty clear that author is the same person

That is part of my point.
The other part is about the site driving.

And my statement "Its far better than other Articles and Tips which for example" was in the same context. I didn't mean quality.

This "solution," posted today to a question asked in 2009: [^].
Is followed by another "solution" dated today from someone who has had no prior activity for six years on CP: [^].
The OP's latest activity on CP seems to have been in January, this year.
I find this ... uhhhh ... strange.
By the way, I got admonished today for posting a comment on a QA thread I didn't realize was a few years old: I saw it in the "Active" queue, and assumed it was "fresh."
My personal choice is not to respond to very old threads/messages unless the OP has modified the question, and there's something I find exceptional/compelling in the thread, but I don't advocate my personal choice as a "rule" for anyone else.
«If you search in Google for 'no-one ever got fired for buying IBM:' the top-hit is the Wikipedia article on 'Fear, uncertainty and doubt'» What does that tell you about sanity in these times?

I usually leave a comment like "How come that you landed in a X years old question?" or something similar.
If the same user does it in very similar questions, most probably is to promote a blog or something like that, what usually ends being nuked.

It is difficult to nuke them, since a full thread is hanging around.
Actually the only full spam is the first message of the thread, the other two are more like defending the reasons why he posted but contain no links (if I am not blind)

How did you open the messages? When I try, the links just go to the first page of the Lounge.

That means that the spam message was probably nuked with a big hammer
