Tips posted by an author starting from the end of last year seem all to contain a link to his site.

As far as I can see, earlier posts are fine so he probably means no harm but those posts could be interpreted as site driving.

Few examples:
- How to Use COALESCE with Different Data Types, look at sentence "The Oracle COALESCE function allows you to check..."
- How To Use Oracle's TRIM, LTRIM and RTRIM Functions , look at sentence "The Oracle TRIM function allows you to remove characters from..."
- What Are The NVL and NVL2 Functions And When Should I Use Them?, look at sentence "The NVL function is..."
- and so on...

If @sean-ewington could have a word with him, if needed.
