Dear Richard

Free as in beer ..or paid as in PR !!!

This is exactly the sort of PR paid editing for which Wikimedia-UK
(and the UK centric paid editing cabals) are notorious for.[1],[2],[3]

Do you seriously expect the community to believe that promoting a
web-page which starts off with an investment pitch is all innocent and
charitable ?
