Was there any confusion?

Now, I'm confused: should this mean bank transfers are only possible in Europe at all or should it mean bank transfers using SEPA are only supported in Europe?

Well... it seems to some donators it was not clear enough that bank transfer require SEPA-support, which is not given in e.g. North American banks. I really hoped that this makes it more clear.

If you want to donate money to the Geany project, it will be used to support further development of Geany, to pay running costs for hosting and domains and support presenting Geany on various [Open Source Conferences][5].

Please note bank transfers are only possible if your bank participates in [SEPA][10], usually this applies to banks in most European countries.

To me, this is clearer. What do you think?
[SEPA][10] should be a reference to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Euro_Payments_Area and need to be added at the bottom.

Just saw the comment -- github is just way to noisy by default. Will update it next chance.
