If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Derek Andrews (talk) 21:42, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

There are other issues with this article which we may be able to resolve. First, and most importantly you need to find some reliable secondary sources that demonstrate the notability of this company Notability (organizations and companies). Without this, the article is likely to be nominated for deletion. Then you need to edit the article so that it is about Mapal Inc, not the parent company. Having said that an article about the parent may be more noteworthy and appropriate to wikipedia. The sections about the subsidiaries and representatives are not appropriate here and should be removed. The section about the product range reads like a sales blurb and should be rewritten, perhaps severely cropping it to give a general overview of the type of products, with wikilinks where appropriate so that the general reader can better understand what they are.

Leave a note here if you need further guidance, and good luck. --Derek Andrews (talk) 21:56, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
