This user[^] has posted three questions, and answered himself just in order to put a link to his website.
The third question has just been posted.
while (!working) {
Reboot();

He did the same with another reply to a different question.

Well, here at last, dear friends, on the shores of the Sea comes the end of our fellowship in CodeProject. Go in peace! I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.

I'm not convinced that it's plagiarism ... but it's not an article either I don't think it will get published as it stands

You were right about that!

I don't think it's plagiarised: think about it.
Even our thickest Mr McThicky from the Planet Thick-Plagiarist probably won't copy code that has a big sign over it saying "this doesn't work, please help" and call it an article!
Ok, ok, some of them would. But most of them couldn't even spell QA, much less find it...

It looks okay. It's a blog post about fixing an issue. It's not as though he's trying to get us to buy the product.

Any opinions on this guys[^] voting record?
64 messages in 10 years and nothing good to say at all.

Looks like he lives under a bridge. Billy Goat Gruff would outsmart him.

Not true - he's posted one message[^] that wasn't a criticism.
I don't see any obvious spam or abusive messages in there. Perhaps he's just an extremely negative person?

I was thinking more along the lines of "10 years and nothing good to contribute" sniffs along the lines of abuse.

His comments are all criticisms, yes. But...I saw no actual abuse there, just a grumpy so-and-so who didn't find exactly what he wanted. It's possible that he upvoted articles he did like without leaving a message - without that information, I don't feel I could "abuse" vote him based on the comments I did look at.

I didn't take any action against him aside from this post. It was just a thought about possible abuse, maybe even a sock puppet account.

Entirely possible - or he's just a grumpy curmudgeon. He certainly doesn't seem to be targeting one person or group, and it also doesn't seem to be a "binge downvoter" either.

I took the nuclear option on the article. It died not with a bang, but a whimper.
