I have made exactly that point before, but John Anderson as list moderator determined that there was no need for anyone to declare an interest in anything they linked. To be fair, Shlomi has regularly explained that he is responsible for perl-begin, but it still worries me that he never claims authorship of the articles themselves. I believe a similar problem exists with people posting recommendations for their own CPAN modules without any declaration of interest. This too is now within the rules. I have never known a public forum run on such strange principles, but of course it is for John to choose and dictate how the site works.
