Note

Hi. I've removed a fair bit of what you added to Trustly as it was unsourced, poorly sourced or promotional. Please read the information below carefully as I have good reason to suspect that you are editing the article for SEO purposes. Please disclose any conflict of interest and suggest future changes on the talk page. Thanks SmartSE (talk) 23:23, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Paid editing

Hello Johannes Eriksson. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a black hat practice.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Johannes Eriksson. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Johannes Eriksson|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. SmartSE (talk) 23:23, 2 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Response

Hello SmartSE

I am in no way affiliated with the company. The original Swedish article originated from a red link to trustly from the swedish article about direct bank transfers. I decided to contribute as i've followed Trustlys journey over the years. Then I saw the discussion about the English article and decided to contribute with an English translation of my original article. Thats it.
