Draft:Dioxide Materials
Got your email, but on my phone, so I'm responding here...

The setup for the article isn't half bad (especially compared to some other first articles). You are certainly using the technical parts of the wikiscripting better than most.

The primary question is 'How many of the entries in "Independent Press Coverage" talk about your company, Dioxide Materials?' Not generally about the Carbon Dioxide Electrolyzer technology and preferably not in an overly technical manner about Sustanion withough mentioning more than who makes it. If you've got two or three of those, then you should be fine. https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg22129593-400-dont-waste-co2-turn-it-into-bottles-and-glue/ is a good start, if we can find another couple at that level, we should be good.

Do you have any competitors that have Wikipedia articles about them to use for a model?

Two negatives off the top of my head. The "R in a circle" isn't used in Wikipedia generally. See Manual of Style/Trademarks and the Analysts Reports don't belong.

We'll keep plugging away.Naraht (talk) 01:40, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Elaborate on connection
Hello Maselrich. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Draft:Dioxide Materials, and that you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.

Paid advocates 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 receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, 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:Maselrich. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:44, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

No payment was received
I declared a conflict of interest because I own Dioxide Materials, but I did not receive any compensation for creating this article.

BTW - I do not know what independent sources are. So for example, ARPA-E funded some work at Dioxide Materials. They wrote a description of the implications of the work without any input from Dioxide Materials. How is this not independent?
