It says that I should not start an article about the company I work for. However, I believe that it REALLY needs an article because all competitors have an article AND our company has received a lot of media attention! What should I do in this case? -- Tilmanb ( talk) 09:47, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
Actually, there is no rule against writing an article about your company. As long as you follow all policies when writing (i.e. not spamming advertisement material, or making the owner/ceo look better than he really is) it should be ok. On the other hand, if you do break a policy, whether intentionally, unintentionally, or ignorantly, people will be much more trigger happy knowing it is your company. People don't like advertisers, and once the connection between you and your company becomes known, any breach of policy (even something as simple as not following the MOS) will be misconsrtrued and used against you.

You need another adopter, I am very busy in real life, It pains me to do so, but you need to find someone else. Programmer13 Talk What I do 16:30, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
This is referred to as bumping. Multiple times, this has been discussed and each time the consensus is that it is vandalism. Please do not bump the reference desk. If you need to, ask your question again in a better way. Others may need more information to find an answer to your question. -- kainaw ™ 19:48, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
