I feel that the edits made by editor ynagashima are not in keeping with Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest policy, outlined here: WP:COI
I recommend that the editor remove the external links to private businesses as well as the specifics of the studies conducted by those private businesses. Besides being self-referential, the results appear to be neither published nor peer-reviewed.
Other procedural inconsistencies and issues appear to be present, though these concerns are secondary to the main issue, which is that the entire edit appears to be created by an employee of the clinic(s) in question and is therefore in violation of Wikipedia’s policies. Entries that are made for the purpose of self-promotion or even those that are created to inform, but are still self-serving only do a disservice to the Wikipedia community and culture.
I urge ynagashima to remove both the edits and the links in this article and in other articles where the edits appear to have been made for the purpose of promotion.
I am contacting the editor directly in keeping with conflict resolution policy as outlined in Wikipedia’s guidelines.
