[Wikimedia-l] Rules of engagement for companies in Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish, Danish?

[David Richfield]

Thanks for the quick reply, Hans!  If our representatives would (for
example) translate an English company page into Norwegian, and then
explain the edits on the talk page, and identify their conflict of
interest on their user pages and also the article talk page, would you
expect that that would be seen as fair and transparent by the
Norwegian Wikipedia community?
