This article has been cited multiple times for seeming too biased. Looking into the edit history, it seems the meat of the article was all written by user "Samsonthetruest", with them authoring dozens of the first revisions, from Dec 2019 - Jan 2020. A google search reveals that "Samson The Truest" is the stage name and social media handle of Sam Geller, brother of Max. The two even have a podcast together, which is mentioned in the article. Worse yet, the podcast is cited as a source at least 11 times in the article, meaning that information is purely coming from the Geller brothers, and not confirmed by an outside source.

I believe this a clear Conflict of Interest. I started a talk page on Samsonthetruest's user profile to ask him about this, but he has not responded.

The wikipedia guideline on COIs says to bring the issue here on the talk page first. If others believe I'm correct, I will take this to the COI Noticeboard. MartinTDR ( talk) 16:21, 26 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Such a podcast may have some WP:ABOUTSELF use, but such use is very restricted. Gråbergs Gråa Sång ( talk) 10:36, 8 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Removed COI tag, as content has been rewritten without Sam Geller's contributions. 100W bulb ( talk) 21:43, 16 June 2024 (UTC) reply

I would consider leaving the footnote for now, unless someone has a better source. While the source is (rightly) depreciated or at least highly biased, I am not seeing a claim sourced by it that must be removed, even by standards of BLP. Does someone disagree?
