Hello, Mlvandijk. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. 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.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Deb (talk) 14:21, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for your e-mail
The best place to respond would have been my talk page. I can accept that you don't have any connection with the subjects of your articles. Perhaps the NPOV tutorial might help you. I am assuming also that English is not your first language and maybe there are nuances of meaning that we are reading into the article that you didn't mean to be there. For example, "Gregory was honored by her peers by being voted the Most Influential Agile Testing Professional Person at Agile Testing Days 2015". Well, she may have been voted such, but we have no idea how many people were involved in voting; it may have been 5 or it may have been 500. The word "honored", however, does not apply as it is neither an award nor an honor in the normal sense. I've amended that wording to give you some idea how it could be better expressed.Deb (talk) 19:01, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
