Your submission at Articles for creation: Crysbro Chicken (May 23)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dan arndt was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Crysbro Chicken and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Crysbro Chicken, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Cysbro Chicken Reply[edit]

Joanna, I strongly suggest that you familarise yourself with Wikipedia's conflict of interest provisions, particularly those relating to paid editing. Wikipedia is not a directory for companies to advertise/promote their respective businesses. No companies 'own' their own Wikipedia page.

The articles on respective companies are required to be encyclopedic in nature and only deal in facts not promotional material. These facts are required to be verified by independent sources.The criteria for whether a company is notable enough to have an article on it is clearly set out under company notability requirements, which clearly state that: No matter how "important" editors may personally believe an organization to be, it should not have a stand-alone article in Wikipedia unless reliable sources independent of the organization have discussed it.
