This looks like a WP:PROMOTION to me, Wikipedia Conflict of interest and WP:PAY. It all traced down from the creator who created the article Asa Asika, then created for his company The Plug and now creating branches for the company such as Plug Sports all from one editor who never went through WP:AFCREVIEW. I won't be surprise to see more branches coming up from either the same creator or suck puppet account. The creator also uploaded the image https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Plug_Sports.jpg gotten from the company instagram page. Gabriel (talk to me ) 15:36, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: It is not mandatory to go through WP:AFCREVIEW. In addition, as an Extended confirmed user I can create articles without submitting them. For clarification, I have no COI with the company or its co-owners, and according to billboard, they are pioneers of Afrobeats. So why not? 🤷‍♂️.--Afí-afeti (talk) 10:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
