Hello, I'm Excirial. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Xytek Plasticoat because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

Xytek Plasticoat Issue

We re-read the welcome page, regarding advertising. We are more than happy to reword our site to show that it is an informational page and not a promotional page. Awareness of what it is, what it does, and just all the aspects of the material and process is what we were aiming to do. If this is still agains Wiki policy, please let me know and will adjust it accordingly to stay within compliance. Thank you in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RaailChris (talk • contribs) 19:44, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello Chris,

Based on the page you created, your username and the usage of the terms "We" and "Our site" i think i can reasonably conclude you are a company employee or otherwise very closely related to the Xytek Plasticoat subject. Due to this you have a very clear conflict of interest with the topic of the article. It is strongly discouraged (bordering not allowed in severity) to edit an article you have a conflict as interest with, as writing a neutral, encyclopedic article may be difficult (The removed page demonstrated this).

The best advice i have to offer you is probably not the advice you wish to hear: I would advice against writing this page yourself as it is likely to be removed again in the future. Besides being a straight advertisement the page was also a copyright violation, and had no claim to notability and no sources that could back up its notability claim. Also, while Wikipedia has many article's on companies and products the vast majoritity of those are removed soon after creation due to the concerns i just mentioned. If you absolutely wish to write the page i can only advice reading the Business FAQ and the Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, and caution you that the effort is quite likely to be in vain.
