He probably gets the articles by monitoring AFD for articles about businesses being considered for deletion and grabbing it before it gets deleted.
No, he requests and receives these articles from admins. See http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=16524 .
Nothing wrong with that.
Well, however it's done my point is that there is no grand conspiracy to delete articles and then offer to bring them back somewhere else for a "price" as the OP has charged. The OP needs to know that Greg Kohs is not affiliated with WP even if he does get deleted articles from admins the same way anybody else can. Deleted articles are not passed "under the table" to "a *buddy's* commercial project".
