User talk:R.E. Chapin

I do not understand how this is a promotional piece. This is about a large manufacturer, their contributions to the town and the history of the company. There are no product launches, no promotional content or gimmicks. Did you even read the article?

 * 1) A Wikipedia talk page is for messages and discussions about work for the encyclopaedia: it is not a place to post a company web page, unrelated to work for Wikipedia. Likewise an article talk page is for messages and discussions related to editing the corresponding article.
 * 2) If you are connected to someone or something you have written about (a few examples are writing about yourself, your business, your band, a member of your family, your client) then you should be aware that Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline discourages you from writing about that subject. The main reason for that is that experience over the years indicates that editors with such a connection to a subject they are writing about are likely to find it very difficult, or even impossible, to stand back from their writing and see how it will look from the detached perspective of an outsider, so that they are likely to write in ways that look promotional to others, even if they sincerely think they are writing in a neutral way. Also, if your editing forms all or part of work for which you are paid, whether as an employee, as a contractor, or in any other capacity, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require you to state who is paying you, and what your connection to them is.
 * 3) Editing for promotional purposes is not permitted, and content which appears to be promotion or advertising is liable to be deleted at any time, without warning. All of your editing so far looks like attempts to advertise your business. I strongly urge you to remove promotional content from what you have written as soon as possible, as otherwise it will be deleted.

Chapin International Inc. moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Chapin International Inc., does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page.
