I've done a fair bit of editing on Wikipedia and can only assert with just as much evidence that this is untrue. in discussions on deletions, the author barely ever comes up and, if it does, it's because the author is obviously the article's subject or someone close. Just looking at this thread, three out of four people are complaining about their edits being rejected on articles about their company, their grandfather, and similar. And yet only the person with the company does as much as hint at the fact that it's a massive conflict of interest.
