Notability Assessment
Entity Credibility
What this service is
Wikipedia page creation is the work of establishing whether a company or person qualifies for an article under Wikipedia's notability guidelines, and if so, drafting one that meets its sourcing and neutrality standards and can survive editorial review.
The honest framing matters here more than in any other service we offer. Nobody can guarantee a Wikipedia page. Wikipedia is written and governed by volunteer editors who apply notability criteria independently, and articles about organisations are among the most frequently rejected and deleted. Any agency promising a guaranteed page is either misunderstanding the process or planning to breach it.
What can be done is genuine: assess honestly whether the coverage exists to support an article, prepare a properly sourced draft, and submit it through the correct channel with the paid-contribution disclosure Wikipedia's Terms of Use require.
How it works
1. Notability assessment, before anything else
Wikipedia's standard for organisations is significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources. Press releases do not count. Sponsored content does not count. Routine funding announcements and directory listings generally do not count. Interviews where the subject is the source count for very little.
We audit what independent coverage actually exists and tell you plainly whether it clears the bar. This frequently ends the engagement, and that is the correct outcome — a rejected draft wastes months and can leave a record that makes a later attempt harder.
2. Identify the sourcing gap
If coverage is close but insufficient, the constructive path is not to write the article. It is to do things worth covering and earn independent reporting first. We will say so, and we can point at what is missing.
3. Draft to Wikipedia's standards
Neutral point of view, every claim cited to an independent source, no promotional language, structured the way comparable articles are. This reads nothing like marketing copy, deliberately.
4. Disclose and submit
Wikipedia's Terms of Use require anyone paid to contribute to disclose the employer and client. We submit through Articles for Creation with that disclosure attached, so the draft is reviewed by an independent editor rather than published directly.
5. Maintain accuracy afterwards
Existing articles drift or attract inaccurate edits. Where a page already exists, the appropriate route is to propose corrections on the article's talk page with sources, not to edit the article directly.
Who it's for
This is a fit if your organisation or founder has already been covered substantively by independent press — not press releases you placed, but journalism written about you by people you do not pay.
This is not a fit if the coverage is not there yet. We would rather tell you that in the first conversation than take a fee for a draft that will be declined.
It is also not a fit if you want an existing article's criticism removed. Wikipedia articles reflect what reliable sources report, including unflattering coverage. Attempting to scrub sourced criticism is both against policy and reliably counterproductive — edit histories are public and the attempt itself has become a news story for other companies.

Frequently asked questions
Does my company qualify for a Wikipedia page?
The test is significant coverage in multiple reliable sources independent of you. Independent means the source is not you, not your PR agency, and not paid placement. Two substantial articles in credible publications that chose to write about you is a far stronger position than fifty press-release pickups. We run this assessment first, and we will tell you if the answer is no.
Can you guarantee the page will be published?
No, and you should treat any agency that guarantees it with suspicion. Volunteer editors decide independently, applying notability and sourcing standards. What we can control is whether the draft is honest, well sourced and properly disclosed — which is what gives it a realistic chance.
Is paying someone to write a Wikipedia page allowed?
Yes, with disclosure. Wikipedia's Terms of Use permit paid contribution provided the contributor discloses their employer and client. Undisclosed paid editing breaches the Terms of Use and, when discovered, results in the article's deletion and the accounts being blocked. We disclose.
How long does the process take?
The notability assessment is quick. If a draft proceeds, Articles for Creation review times vary considerably depending on reviewer availability and can run to several months. There is no way to expedite it, and offers to do so are not legitimate.
Can you remove negative information from our existing page?
Not if it is accurately sourced. What can be addressed is genuine inaccuracy, outdated information, or undue weight — raised on the article's talk page with supporting sources, for independent editors to action. Editing your own article directly is discouraged by policy and tends to attract more scrutiny, not less.
How much does Wikipedia page creation cost?
Quoted individually, and the notability assessment comes first because it determines whether there is a project at all. We would rather charge for an honest assessment that ends in 'not yet' than for a draft with no realistic path to publication.
