Please advice me, how to create the new company wiki page?

Hi MSathis. Trying to create a new Wikipedia article, especially one about an extant company, is one of the most difficult, frustrating, and time consuming tasks a novice can attempt. I advise against doing it until you've gained substantial experience improving existing articles. (See Wikipedia:Community portal if you're unsure where to start.)
To create a new encyclopedia article about a company, first chose a company that is notable. Publicly traded corporations listed on major stock exchanges such as the NYSE are not inherently notable, but sufficient independent sources (such as books and newspapers) almost always exist for such companies. Second, if you have a connection to the company, disclose it on your user page. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:17, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewing the Edits Before Submission to ensure they meet your requirements.

I have made several edits to the page "Draft:Joseph A. Camp" and would like to get an opinion prior to resubmission.

Thank you,

22:41:24, 28 November 2019 review of draft by DetroitWheels74

[edit]


I submitted an article, "Screwy T.V.", and someone named "Cassiopeia" (sp?) nuked it. I asked why, and she (he?) gave a word-salad answer. What's wrong with the article? Should I just submit it again? I mean, what the heck?

DetroitWheels74 (talk) 22:41, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DetroitWheels74. All articles must strive for verifiable accuracy, citing reliable, authoritative sources. The draft cites no sources. Add sources that substantiate the statements made in the draft, and that demonstrate that the topic is notable (suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia as a stand-alone article). Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources lists sources Wikipedians have found useful in writing about albums. See Help:Referencing for beginners for an explanation of how to cite sources.
Wikipedia is forever a work in progress. It contains high quality articles and poor quality articles. The existence of an article does not mean it should exist. It may only mean that no one has gotten around to deleting it yet. So generally it isn't productive to compare a draft to other pages. The essay WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS may help you understand why. When discussing whether a draft is acceptable for publication, it's safer to argue from policies and guidelines. If you wish to learn from examples, be sure to use Wikipedia's best. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:41, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
