InfoBeans
Replying to your message on my talk page: the key point, which we don't make clear enough to new users, is that Wikipedia is not a business listing directory, or a place for companies to tell the world about themselves. It does not expect, or want, to have articles about every company that exists. It is actually quite selective.

The inclusion criterion is called WP:Notability, and is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have people not connected with the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about?

That has the advantage of being a more objective test than "Do we think it's important?" and also of ensuring that there are independent sources for the article. It is quite a tough test, and many worthy organizations, especially new ones, cannot pass it. That is not at all to their discredit, but it means they are not suitable subjects for a global encyclopedia.

That's why the InfoBeans article, which just says what the company does, with no references but its own website, was proposed for deletion. It would be fine on Facebook or Myspace, but Wikipedia is different.

So what the article needs, if it is to be kept, is references showing significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. There is useful advice at WP:Your first article and WP:Notability (organizations and companies).

Regards, JohnCD (talk) 18:46, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Have a look at Articles_for_deletion/InfoBeans where the discussion leading to the deletion was held. As JohnCD mentions, we need to await independent writings on the company. This means that you won't be writing it, or employing others to write about it. Deletion reviews or asking closing administrators are also possible, but in this case I don't think that you will get anywhere. It is possoible to write a Draft:InfoBeans page, but it will not be able to go to an article unless notability can be proved. Having 400 employees is not the same as notability. What we need to see are substantial newspaper appearances. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:25, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

InfoBeans
Hello, thank you for taking the initiative to update User:VirtualAvi/InfoBeans to meet our criteria for inclusion. While the article does look a lot better than the previously deleted version, it still contains a few issues concerning a lack of a neutral point of view. For example, the phrases "InfoBeans strives to create wow for its stakeholders that include customers, vendors and more importantly team members", and "Mitesh love to train and write on entrepreneurship.". If instances like these can be corrected, the article may be submitted at WP:AFC for further review. Thanks, Nakon  00:06, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, VirtualAvi. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article InfoBeans, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Given this previous discussion, a Connected Contributor declaration should be placed on Talk:InfoBeans. AllyD (talk) 09:01, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

Reply from author VirtualAvi
Thank you editors SwisterTwister talk, AllyD (talk) and David Gerard (talk) for your inputs.

I see their is seemingly a conflict of interest as I'm one of the founders of InfoBeans. Let me share with you all that last year I worked with some of the senior Wiki authors to learn about AFC guidelines and how to maintain Neutral Point of View. I went through several iterations with wiki seniors to arrive to the article that is not a PR or advertising where we boast about ourselves. Our attempt was to make it informative and therefore listed plain simple facts about the company in its journey of last 16 years. None of these awards Asia's best employer, Great Place to Work are paid for and none of these certifications like CMMi, NSE India, CRISIL are acquired unfairly. Also all of these are reputed ones and known internationally.

I was not aware of the COI part at that time. I assumed that as a founder of a company, I'm the most informed person about my company, so I would be the best person to author an article on my company.

Nevertheless, I'm willing to work with you to remove or rephrase the article to meet NPOV guidelines. Also added declaration about COI on the page.

Please help me in editing the content to meet the Wikipedia guidelines. VirtualAvi (talk) 12:33, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
