Hi, thanks for message. Before you attempt to write any article you should read Tutorial and Your first article, so that you know how to edit. Also look at BAE Systems to see what a company article should look like, although you don't need anything like that amount of detail, that's a WP:FA. I deleted your article because Jimfbleak - talk to me?  13:36, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
 * it did not provide adequate independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. You gave some references, but they were not in-line so we can't tell what fact each is supporting.
 * There is no indication of how it meets the notability criteria. To show notability you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, turnover or profits. All you told us is that it has three founders, may be the entire staff for all we are told
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Your article just told us what you sell
 * the article was a copyright violation. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. The copied text was labelled © All Rights Reserved. Bird Aerosystems LTD, obviously not PD. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.
 * let me know how i can promote BIRD Aerosystems webpage.&mdash; you are not allowed to promote anything, you can write an encyclopaedia article, not an advert. It's clear that you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, and you 'must declare it. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
 * If you work directly or indirectly for the company, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. Regardless, if you are paid directly or indirectly by the company you are writing about, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:    . If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.
