Requested Move
I am requesting that this user page be moved to B&K Precision Corporation upon approval of content. I have tried to submit this article before and it was flagged for Advertising. I have rewritten the article to be as non-biased as possible and I have included reputable sources for credibility and notability. If this article does not meet Wikipedia.org's standards, please describe the problem with as much detail as possible so that I can fix it. Thank you.
 * See WP:NOTE (and more importantly WP:CORP) for what is required of any corporate entity with an entry in the encyclopedia. Unfortunately, this article is going to receive additional scrutiny due to perceived conflict of interest &mdash; real or imagined. --Aarktica 14:51, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have looked over both WP:NOTE and WP:CORP. Is this content not considered notable? I have included multiple unaffiliated articles. Would more be required? Also, I have kept the article as short and precise as possible. I understand that there will be more scrutiny due to perceived conflict of interest, but I hope that this can be resolved nonetheless. I have attempted to make this article as non-biased as possible stating only verifiable facts about the company and leaving out anything that might be interpreted as advertising. We have credible, unaffiliated news articles; the article is written to include only facts about the company (e.g. the company was started in 1951 and creates test equipment); what else needs to be done to this article to have it be accepted? --Lmcculley 15:44, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The introduction to NOTE indicates that all such entries should be "worthy of notice." The article in question falls short in that regard. If you are looking for possible reviewers of the article, you can try GA/R. --Aarktica 19:46, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I have read all of what you are referring. "The article in question falls short" does not specify _why_ it fails to meet the guidelines for "worthy of notice." I have given references to articles clearly showing that this company has a long standing history in the field of test equipment manufacturing and is worthy of notability. I can not fix an article without _reason_ for it falling short. --Lmcculley 20:14, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * There is an element of subjectivity when discussing the notability of a given entry. According to the notability guidelines:
 * "Significant coverage" means that sources address the subject directly in detail, and no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than trivial but less than exclusive.
 * If you consider the references included "significant coverage", then we have a difference of opinion. However, I doubt that this information as is would ever appear in any other reputable encyclopedia... --Aarktica 02:34, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it be moved. --Stemonitis 16:11, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Good Article Review
I would like some help getting this article accepted.

Fair use rationale for Image:BK-Slogan02.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:BK-Slogan02.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Malkinann 01:32, 6 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I believe I have created the fair use rationale to meet Wikipedia's guidelines.
