Ways to improve Holoverse

Hi JamesG5 , thanks for the feedback. I am an employee of a company, and that company owns Holoverse. Thus I am not directly attached, but also linked to it I guess. I have again reviewed all the content to ensure that it does not read like an advertisement given it is not one, and I have even subtracted original details about the experiences at the venue so as to further adhere to encyclopedic standard. There are references to legitimate third party articles that verify the statements made about the legitimacy of the government grants issued to forward the technology, as well as proving the technology is Austrlian and high end. I was careful to link to those articles to prove that the content is factual and not promotional fluff. :) I also linked an existing Wiki page (the page for the father company, Euclideon) to the new Holoverse one. It is thus now in two senses no longer an orphan page. If there is anything else I can put in specifically, please let me know. Please note, I am focused on meeting the remaining outstanding elements required (if any), so please refrain from removing the article in the interim. Many thanks for your ongoing advice. Also, is it required that I create a user page for my account Sbanks82? I can if required, I just thought I was to create Holoverse under this user name as I created it. It is just appearing in red for some reason. Simon (SBanks82) SBanks82

Hi, I'm JamesG5. SBanks82, thanks for creating Holoverse!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Page needs sources to verify claims and confirm it meets WP:GNG. Section headers not formatted correctly. Too many unnecessary details, like explaining each scenario. Whole page reads like an ad, see WP:PROMO. No links from or to this page & other articles.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

• To explain specifically the concerns, this is too suggestive of their own advertised websites, not an independent encyclopedia like here; if you are connected to the subject, keep to mind our set policies WP:What Wikipedia is not and WP:Paid and note that they allow deletion of all questionable articles.

Hi JamesG5 I asked on the other thread that the Holoverse page please be left up for another two weeks so I could work on it. This given you guys had commended me on the changes made so far. However I now cannot find it. I would really like to add the one or two extra things you asked for so as to be able to get it to where you need it to be. I love wiki and have donated before, so if you could please tell me where I can find the page, it would be appreciated. Thanks. Simon

Hi Simon, it looks like an admin must have deleted it. Check out WP:REFUND and make the case for restoring it so you can make fixes. JamesG5 (talk) 01:10, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

• Before making any other edits, it is mandatory you read and comply with the links I shower above as these are both pillar and legal policies. Basically, anyone working for then must openly note it at their user page. If you can, you can show any planned changes here for examination. SwisterTwister talk 16:24, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Hello, SBanks82. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Holoverse, 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 which forms all or part of work 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. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:08, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Holoverse

The article Holoverse has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:55, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
