Hello, XatTII. I see that you have made a disclosure of paid editing, thank you for that. You also need to make sure that you follow Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline. Editors with a direct personal connection to a subject they are writing about may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, even if they sincerely believe they are editing neutrally. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
The editing you have done in the article Transporter Industry International is certainly not blatant spam, like some editing we get, but some of it is phrased in ways which do not read as totally neutral. That kind of writing is actually more difficult to deal with than unambiguous marketing copy, because while the latter can simply be removed, the former may contain useful content which one would prefer not to remove, but sifting through it and deciding what to leave as it is, what to reword and how to do so, and what to remove altogether, may be quite a substantial task, especially for an editor without previous knowledge of the subject, so that they have to continually keep checking sources. In fact, the amount of work is likely to be so disproportionate to the benefit, that more often what happens is just wholesale reverting of the editing. JBW (talk) 16:01, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
