Signing comments
[edit]Hello Meridith. I've responded to your request Wikipedia:Help_desk#Company_Page. I wanted to also let you know that you can sign your comments on Wikipedia by adding a "~~~~" at the end of your comments or by clicking the third button from the left on the menu bar of the editing window. This automatically translates into a signature like the one at the end of my comments here, placing a link to your userpage, user talk page, and placing a timestamp on the the comment as well. This helps us to understand who is saying what and when. Let me know if you have other questions. Thanks, --Hammersoft (talk) 14:00, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
Thomas Smith Group
[edit]I've reviewed the AFC article Draft:Thomas Smith Group and it looks fairly good. I do not like the image you added and have removed it. It's promotional (with the car lineup in front), looks as if it could be photoshopped for the logos, and doesn't convey much information. Is there a better image that can be used? power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:07, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
Also, several of the sections in the article need references; references to primary sources such as the Thomas Smith Group's website are acceptable, but secondary sources are preferred. power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:16, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

Feel free to ping me (with {{ping|power~enwiki}} ) once you've made the changes and I'll move it to mainspace without waiting for the AFC queue delay. power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:19, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Draft:Thomas Smith Group, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
