I had forgotten that Maria Manaseina had a Wikiparticle, and I was 
surprised to see that I had edited it in March 2021, removing an 
irrelevant reference inserted by someone determined to insert 
references to himself in as many pages as possible.

Maybe Arindam could pay someone (not allowed, but not easy to 
recognize) to write a Wikiparticle about himself. It's the closest 
he'll ever get to fame.
