Hi Rhys.downard, please note Wikipedia is not considered a reliable source so you should not use as a reference (see WP:CIRC). Also, I suggest reading Wikipedia's notability guidelines for organizations to ensure the subject meets the criteria to warrant an article. S0091 (talk) 17:51, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Vox Telecoms (May 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Gbawden was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I think the company is notable but this reads too much like an advert at the moment
