Your article will go live tonight, with proper wiki formatting. Thanks for taking the time to go thru the formalities. upstateNYer 22:22, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I've brought the article live. However, it's not yet finished. Please complete the following tasks:
  1. Fill in the empty fields in the infobox at the beginning of the article (if any are not applicable, just delete them). See this for explanation on what each field represents. If releasing dollar values in the infobox is not something the company wants to do, don't do it.
  2. Upload a clean but small (no bigger than 300px wide) version of your logo over this version that I uploaded (that is, a version without the grey background, unless of course that's your standard design).
  3. This article needs some links to it; find other articles that could link to this article. SUNY Albany might be a good place to start, and College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering probably couldn't hurt either. Please steer clear of Albany, New York. It's long enough as it is and is written in summary style.
  4. This article needs categories. Please add some. You may want to start here. Categories are added at the bottom of the article, in the form of [[Category:XXX]] where the category name is already defined (i.e., don't make one up - if you see the category in red text at the bottom after adding it, it doesn't exist). I put in some general ones; you'll want to use more technical terms.
  5. If you want some clicks, please come up with a reasonably interesting fact (e.g., 'it was the first to do X', or 'has the most Y'), no more than 200 characters, which can go in the "Did you know...?" section on the main page of Wikipedia. The Main Page gets about 5 million hits per day and any given DYK link can get thousands of hits in the 6 hours it's on that page. Whatever the fact is, it needs to be explicitly sourced in the article. If you're not interested, no big deal.
Let me know if you have any additional questions. You can leave comments on the article's talk page from now on. upstateNYer 02:00, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You don't have to worry about this; it was my fault since I used the copyrighted image in user space (which is a no-no). upstateNYer 21:56, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
