Ask about adding an article to Wikipedia
Why is it worth entrusting the addition of a Wikipedia entry to an experienced Wikipedian?
Although Wikipedia is an open platform for everyone and anyone can add new articles, not every submitted text is accepted. To maintain the reliability of sources and credibility of information, all added articles and edits to existing entries undergo detailed verification. The status of the user account that submitted the content also plays a role in the favorable assessment of the content. Trusted Wikipedians who regularly publish new and verified information have a significantly easier time gaining acceptance for the content they post.
Important Information About Wikipedia
- Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertising platform — all content must be neutral and backed by sources.
- Articles are subject to review by the Wikipedia community.
- The acceptance time for added content ranges from several days to several months.
- Adding an entry to Wikipedia does not guarantee that the information we present will appear in Google’s Knowledge Panel. However, such an entry increases those chances.
What You’ll Gain by Adding an Entry About Your Company to Wikipedia?
- Prestige and distinction — although anyone can add an entry on Wikipedia, not all content is accepted by administrators. This often affects small companies unknown at a national level. When an article about your company appears on the platform, you’ll join the ranks of distinguished brands.
- Acquiring a valuable link — although links from Wikipedia carry the “nofollow” attribute, Google considers them valuable and credible. This is mainly because not all linking is accepted by administrators. Wikipedia is still regarded as a trustworthy source of information.
- Increased brand recognition — appearing on Wikipedia is an opportunity to build a positive brand image.

FAQ
How to Add an Entry (Article) to Wikipedia?
To add an entry to Wikipedia:
- Create an account — register on Wikipedia.org.
- Check the rules — the entry must be encyclopedic, well-sourced, and neutral.
- Start with a draft — use your user space or sandbox to avoid immediate deletion of the entry.
- Prepare the text — make sure to remain objective.
- Add sources — use reliable, independent sources (e.g., press articles, books, reports).
- Submit the entry — after verification and any necessary corrections, add it to the main article space.
If the topic does not meet the criteria of encyclopedic relevance, the entry may be removed.
What Are the Criteria for Adding a Company Entry to Wikipedia?
To add a company entry to Wikipedia, several of the following conditions must be met:
- Significant position in the industry or region
- Presence in independent media
- Documented business history
- Innovative achievements or patents
- Impact on the development of the industry or region
Do You Guarantee That the Article Will Remain on Wikipedia?
Wikipedia is a community-driven project, so we cannot guarantee that an article prepared by us in its content and form will remain permanently on the platform. Anyone can suggest edits, and editors either accept or reject them. However, thanks to our experience, we know which elements to focus on in order for the article to pass verification and appear on Wikipedia.
How Long Does It Take to Publish an Article on Wikipedia?
Unfortunately, patience is required. The number of editors compared to the number of volunteer Wikipedians is far too small for them to be able to approve new changes on an ongoing basis. According to reputation.ca, an average of around 450 new articles are created daily. New entries are usually approved within 3 to 6 months.
Is It Possible to Add Your Own Biography on Wikipedia?
Yes, but you cannot do it yourself. Wikipedia explicitly states that you should not create articles about yourself — neither publishing your own biography nor updating or adding information about yourself. If editors detect that an entry is an autobiography, they may delete it under the speedy deletion process. For this reason, adding a biography should be entrusted, for example, to us — independent Wikipedians from the editors’ perspective.
Can Anyone Publish on Wikipedia?
Yes, anyone can add a new entry or edit an existing one. You don’t even need to be a registered user, officially referred to as a Wikipedian. All changes go through editors, who verify whether they meet the guidelines, include proper sources, and provide reliable information.
Under Which Account Do You Publish Articles on Wikipedia?
We publish articles from an account named **GF user**.
