Welcome!
Hello, Georgialeighton, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:MyDNA, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:MyDNA


A tag has been placed on Draft:MyDNA, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 01:12, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

The article about your employer
Hello I wanted to expand on the deletion notice above. If you are going to write an article any company do not base it off what they say about themselves. You must base it off what has been published by others in reliable sources. That being said it should not be an interview of one of their employees or press releases by the company. My best advice for you would be to stop and learn more about the Wikipedia environment and the policies involved with writing an article and let your boss know this is not going to go well if they continue to try and push their company and products on Wikipedia. I have seen it end up with their article pages being protected against recreation and links to their site being spam listed and automatically blocked from being added to Wikipedia anywhere. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to ask here or you can talk to someone else at the Tea house. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 01:20, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello Georgialeighton -- Thanks for being open about your conflict of interest. has given you sound advice. The guidelines for companies are strict and many editors who volunteer here for free are unhappy about people writing articles for money. You need to find several (at least three) different reliable sources (eg newspaper/journal articles) that are independent of the company and that talk about the company in depth. Then base the article entirely on what sources state, not your personal knowledge. When you are finished, you must submit your article to the WP:Articles for Creation service so that an experienced editor can review its neutrality. Good luck!
