Your draft article User:Enusbaum85/new article name here ‎
I left a message similar to this on the user page of, who first produced this article, where you left a "helpme". I didn't then realise that it was from a different user account. By the way, if you are the same person as Cfrederico, you should choose one account and stick to it, to avoid suspicion of sockpuppetry.

Your draft article is an improvement on the previous versions, because it avoids promotional terms; what it lacks is independent references - if the company is to have an article, you need to show that it is notable, which is not a matter of opinion but must be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. Wikipedia is not a business listing directory, and does not expect to have articles about every company. Read WP:Your first article for more advice on how to write an article; WP:Notability (organizations and companies) and the WP:FAQ/Organizations have more advice, and there are two useful links at the top of your draft article.

 * To chime in here: what John said above; I don't think the article is ready for moving to mainspace right now; notability is (barely) established, but we need significant coverage in reliable sources. Cheers.Lectonar (talk) 13:27, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
