Hotel television systems (T-H-L)
This is a crap article because it contains no references, it features loads of spam links (many of which are anchored to "Hotel TV"), it contains a blatant falsehood about cable TV in hotels (that there is a "set-top box in each room"), and it's been edited almost entirely by IP addresses and one guy who is obsessed with IPTV. One of the IPs is
164.4.17.33 (T-C-L), which goes to Sandvik headquarters, and they've been doctoring Wikipedia for years, it seems, focusing on the articles about products where their materials are used.

First, I think our WP:OUTING is deeply flawed for a number of reasons. Well-intentioned but poorly written. I'm not willing to make a blanket statement that it doesn't apply with respect to COI/paid editing investigations, because that would invite abuse and people would rightly yell at me for speaking carelessly. What I would recommend is that if people have information and fear that they may get into trouble for WP:OUTING, they should email ArbCom and me and possibly the Foundation to get guidance.
Somebody should e-mail Jimbo (he won't read e-mails from me), and let him know about this article and how it's been subverted to be nothing more than a spam link repository. And remind him that it's not for lack of "crowd" to keep an eye on the article -- it gets nearly 2,000 page views per month.
