Hi, thanks for message. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~. I deleted your article because
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. Yours is littered with links to the company, its founders etc
 * Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: which delivers high quality... SafeRack has customers in more than 50 countries and has seen a 500 percent increase in sales since 2010


 * the article was a copyright violation of at least this page. 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 page is tagged ©2016 SixAxisLLC. All Rights Reserved. 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.
 * You have an obvious conflict of interest when editing this article, and you must declare it. Paid editing is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization, directly or indirectly, to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not. You are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly. 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. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

Although we normally restore deleted text on request, for legal reasons we do not do so with copyright material. I can post you your references if that would help Jimfbleak - talk to me?  15:32, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the input, Jim. I was not aware of the policy of outside links. I will make sure all links are Wiki links. Restoring my text would make it a lot easier for me to revise the copy but if you prefer I start over I can do that. Also, the 500 percent increases in sales statement was supported by at least one of the citations (Business Facilities magazine) so not sure why that is considered promotional. Either way, that can be deleted. Let me know if you can restore my copy and I will try to make this bare bones. I believe this company is notable enough to be included in Wikipedia. It's a fast growing company that will only continue to gain more notoriety as it grows.David1456 (talk) 16:08, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

As I indicated above, you must make the COI declaration before you can continue to edit articles associated with SixAxis, SafeRack or other companies in the group. Once you have made such a declaration, I'll restore the page with some of the text redacted. It won't be immediate, since I'm out all day today. A couple of minor points Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:01, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Company names are given without LLC, Ltd, Inc, Pvt etc, so the article title should be just SixAxis (see, eg, Tesco
 * If you use a reference multiple times, give it a name first time eg, then next time you just need
