Information icon Hello, I'm Stesmo. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the main body of Trustpilot. Generally, any relevant external links should be listed in an "External links" section at the end of the article and meet the external links guidelines. Links within the body of an article should be internal Wikilinks. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 16:28, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think you are wrong, how is putting competitor links on a page disruptive. Are you saying that Pepsi page can not mention Coca Cola or Microsoft page ca not mention apple. Wikipedia is a Encyclopedia where people to come to leanr about things not to have one sided advertorials. Wikipedia visitors should be allowed to see who companies competitors are! I hope Wikipedia read this a see how one sided this TRUSTPILOT page has became. InReviewsWeTrust 20:17, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

How is adding competitors and adding articles about the company disruptive?

There is no reason to add a list such as that one, in that format. It is simply not something we do, unless there is sourced prose around it and the inclusion is merited and the other companies are actually notable. Your contributions around here seem limited so far to editing this article, which makes it obvious that you have some kind of agenda. I recommend finding something else to edit, because if you continue down this path your account is likely to be blocked for disruptive editing and edit warring. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 20:20, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the Trustpilot article, because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. You may find our linking guidelines helpful in this regard. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Request reason:

I have been blocked for helping create a unbiased not advertorial based article. I edit my post to say ... Ekomi is Trustpilot's main rival in central Europe, while Feefo and Reviews.co.uk are there main competitors in the UK. Although Trustpilot is seen as the market leader in some markets they have lost market share in 2015 to smaller localised rivals such as Yotpo, PowerReviews & Review.io. <<<<< how is this disruptive?

Decline reason:

It seems likely that you have a conflict of interest regarding one of these competitors. Even if there wasn't any, a list of competitors smells of original research without references, and we just don't practice these types of lists (maybe 2-3 links to articles in "See also" section). In any case, you've been told multiple times that you shouldn't be doing it, you persisted to the point it became an edit war, you got blocked. And we block for edit warring no matter of the merits of edits themselves - because edit warring is disruptive in any case. There are a few exceptions but none of them apply.
