 * Hi Natashavelkovski, and thank you for filing these edit requests. I will be reviewing them one-by-one and giving my reasoning for approving or rejecting them. This edit request will be ❌ for the following reasons:
 * The draft needs to cite reliable sources to support each claim.
 * The draft is too promotional. It presents a very one-sided picture of Wilson Security, because it's basically just a listing of acquisitions, new contracts, and new marketing strategies in an effort to convince readers that the company is succeeding. Instead, a corporate article should tell the history of the company in a manner that's not so pointed.
 * The draft needs to be properly formatted. You can use  at the start of a line to insert a line break, or insert a blank line to start a new paragraph.
 * I would advise reading through some Wikipedia articles about corporations, such as History of Target, to see how articles can be written neutrally. They should not sound like press releases. Best, Altamel (talk) 01:36, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

 * ❌, because the Services draft lacks reliable sources and is clearly promotional. A number of Wikipedia editors have raised concerns about keyword stuffing, a search engine optimization practice where webpages try to anticipate and include as many keywords as possible. This draft, with sentences such as "Wilson Security Technology provides technological solutions such as security management, digital surveillance, access control systems, thermal temperature detection, electronic detection, perimeter security, security consulting and security inspections," appears to be engaging in that practice. If you do submit a rewrite, please condense and summarize the draft. Altamel (talk) 01:50, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

 * ❌: Sorry Natashavelkovski, but this list of awards is way too long. In general, I'm skeptical of including awards on corporate profiles. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising, marketing or public relations, but the purpose of such a long list of awards can be none other than to win over prospective customers and investors. I am declining this edit request. Altamel (talk) 01:15, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
