Draft:Phoebus the Knight gets more interesting

If you pop over to this Commons conversation you will see that the creating editor has a COI which is as a band member, thus they are engaged in UPE. I suppose either of us might have noticed it before, but the COI is well hidden in the text. I've been able to tag the article as UPE and warn the creating editor against it. They must make a declaration prior to continuing here. And the draft is actually a glorified advert.

Apologies if you are my grandmother and I am teaching to to suck eggs! Drafts are often the source of a hunt for UPE, and also (unrelated) a source for SPI. I often find that following all the threads in a draft, especially one with pictures, any pictures, leads me to interesting scenarios. It cuts down the quantity of my reviews, but it helps the overall quality of Wikipedia 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 06:48, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
