COI tag

The editing history of the creator of this page and certain other contributing editors suggest a possible conflict of interest, as does some of the peacock language chosen by them (and an IP's removal just now of this COI tag).--Epeefleche (talk) 19:34, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned up this page, using objective information I could find out about Dr. Kaufman online.--philosophy357 (talk) 22:06, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Note also that it's not clear whether he is a psychologist or merely a professor of psychology. Most jurisdictions restrict the title "psychologist" to those who are licensed to practice in the mental health care arena. Does he have a license? Mirafra (talk) 22:05, 1 July 2013 (UTC)mirafra[reply]

Article appears to be being used for promotional purposes

There have been three editors who have all their edit history or the great majority of their edit history being additions of material to this page. They are:

SeptimusCoverly (created the article)

Cogscience

Cognition Seeker

So I have my doubts whether these are three independent editors and whether they are adhering to Wikipedia guidelines.

Anyway, I have just done a cleanup to remove the more obviously promotional material. Let's hope it doesn't come creeping back in. Oska (talk) 02:39, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another edit by Cognition Seeker, despite warning

See https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Scott_Barry_Kaufman&diff=prev&oldid=1103471102&diffmode=source

Bonus prize: Manages to misspell University of Pennsylvania.

I'll leave it for the next editor to decide whether to walk this addition back. — MaxEnt 17:27, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
