Because the policy didn't exist then. [[WP:COI]]
was a guideline about
not making vanity pages until October 10th.
It is still just a guideline. I think that implies that it is the behavioural issues
arising that matter most, for policy; and that these are dealt with under regular policy
that is nothing new.
That being said, it is apparent to me that we need at the very least a clear, tough
guideline on 'conflict of interest'. As much as anything else, in its absence
people are going to come here and impale themselves on policy, just because they are
completely ignorant of what editing entails. There needs to be a place where the issues
are spelled out.
