Please do not directly move articles from the draft space to the main article space, as you did with the article for Startup Monthly (STM). While you are welcome to 'directly' write articles, 'publishing' them as you did does not clean up the 'leftover' templates, etc, used by the articles for creation process....you left a 'banner' on the article stating that it was recently created through Articles for Creation and that someone was in the process of cleaning up.
You should also be aware that by publishing articles directly as you have done, they will be judged by the much 'harsher' standards for live articles...something that would merely be 'declined' with suggested fixes as a draft will be likely deleted as as article if it does not fit Wikipedia's content policies.
I'm cleaning this up for you, but please do not do it 'this way' in the future. If you are going to write an article in your user space and then put it live, please do so by 'manually' removing the sandbox and draft headers, and then moving the article to mainspace. Thanks. Revent talk 03:55, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
Also, after actually 'looking'.... don't use the {{ sidebar}} template as you have done, please use the 'infobox' templates to fit into Wikipedia's standard 'layout'. The appropriate template for this case in {{ infobox company}}. I'm also fixing this, and moving the article to Startup Monthly to comply with Wikipedia's article naming policies. Revent talk 04:01, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
So sorry, I'm new to writing articles here and apparently I misunderstood how to finish up a draft. Thank you for your input, I'll make sure to be more careful in the future!

It's not a shooting offense, didn't mean to sound 'bitey' if I came across that way. Looking at 'how' it was written, it looks like you are probably familiar with MediaWiki and just not familiar with Wikipedia's 'extensive' customizations. For instance, there is almost never a need to use __TOC__... the software will automatically insert one at the appropriate place once the article has enough sections to need it. One main purpose of AfC is as a 'teaching aid' to help new editors catch on to how things work.
About the article, itself....to be honest, it is well written, but it is completely based on self-published sources, and that's not really appropriate for Wikipedia. I put flags on the article, which describe and give links to the issues, but you should be aware that without some kind of 'independent, reliable sources' or claim as to why the company is notable, it stands a good chance of being marked for deletion by someone else.

The article Startup Monthly has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Promotional article, created by SPA. No evidence of notability. Sourcing is a REFBOMB of bad sources. WP:BEFORE shows no coverage, let alone coverage with WP:CORPDEPTH. Tagged since 2014, no reasonable prospect of organic repair.
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.
