Paid contributions 13-JAN-2019
According to your COI disclosure, the work you performed on this page as a COI editor occurred within a very brief window of time (e.g., "Between February and May 2018, I worked on three paid articles."). Please indicate whether or not you received compensation for the edits you made to this article after May 2018 — eleven in total. I would have asked you on your talk page, but messages placed there by others do not appear to stay there for very long. Please advise. Thank you!  Spintendo   22:22, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * , the two articles that have been published saw me receiving one-time payments for their respective publications. I was never compensated for the third article, as it was never published. I am not in any way involved with either company, so all edits made after the articles' publications are entirely voluntary and part of my routine Wikipedia work. This means that I am not compensated for any of the edits, nor would I have any other gain except for a cleaner version of an encyclopedia article I worked on. That is to say that I no longer have a COI with either article, but used to for the sake of creating them. Is there a way to properly tag a "former COI"?

 * Thank you for providing the references, it is much appreciated.
 * Unfortunately, the requested parameters cannot be added to the article's infobox because the variant used for this article is, whereas the parameters in the proposal such as the headquarters and area_served parameters, are native to the template.
 * The infobox company template supports the embedding of other templates into its structure — however — as far as I can tell, the same cannot be said of the software infobox. It would seem, then, that the providing of references was a fruitless task for which I apologize.


 * I'm failing to see the point to have an infobox describing a company, while the rest of the article is about the app it develops. Such a change has been implemented seemingly without consensus. IceWelder  &#91; &#9993; &#93; 12:34, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
