We’ll tell you clearly in the assessment. Publishing without meeting the criteria almost always ends in the article being deleted and leaves a negative track record. In that case, we’ll tell you what kind of coverage is missing so you can reassess later.

Wikipedia is very strict about conflicts of interest: articles written by the company itself or people close to it are often flagged as promotional and end up deleted. The key isn’t hiding the connection, but working within the community’s rules: an encyclopedic tone, solid sources and transparency about contributions, as required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use.
Eligibility assessment, source research and selection, encyclopedic writing, support through publication, and ongoing monitoring and corrections. To get started, contact us and we’ll do an initial assessment of your case.
Yes. We work with companies, institutions, professionals and public figures. For people, the notability criteria are stricter, which makes the initial assessment even more important.
Independent, reliable publications such as recognized news outlets, specialized publications or books that cover the subject in depth. Press releases, owned websites and passing mentions carry little or no weight. Part of our work is identifying which of your media appearances actually count.
The process takes up to 4 weeks, covering source research, writing, publication and the stabilization period. The timeline also depends on the client’s review and approval times at each stage.
It can be corrected, but not by editing it directly if you have a connection to the subject. There’s a specific procedure for requesting changes, and doing it wrong can trigger reviews or even get the article deleted. WikiStart manages that process.
No. Once published, anyone can edit it, and the content must reflect what the sources say, not the company’s view. What you can do is start from a solid, well-documented article and maintain it over time, because a Wikipedia article is never finished.
No one can honestly guarantee it: the final decision belongs to Wikipedia’s community of editors. What we do guarantee is a realistic assessment before starting and work done in line with Wikipedia’s rules, which is what most improves the chances of the article being published and staying up.
Yes, if the community considers that it doesn’t meet the criteria or that it reads as promotional. That’s why ongoing follow-up is part of the service: we monitor the article and respond to changes or challenges, including edit wars.
We work on Spanish, English and Portuguese Wikipedia. Each language edition has its own community and its own criteria, so each one is assessed separately.
Wikipedia usually appears among the top results when someone searches for a name, and it’s one of the sources search engines and AI assistants rely on most. A Wikipedia article makes that information available from a source they consider trustworthy.
Those profiles are written by the company itself, which makes them less credible. Wikipedia is an independent source, verified by its community. We explain it in detail in Wikipedia vs. LinkedIn and Other Profiles.
Writing in a promotional tone, relying on owned or weak sources, and editing with an undisclosed conflict of interest, among others. We go through them in The 10 Mistakes People Make When Trying to Publish on Wikipedia.
