Response to question

Hello. I would first note that if you are editing for or intend to edit for clients, you are required by the Wikipedia Terms of Use to read and formally comply with the paid editing policy and declare that status. You should also review conflict of interest.

I think that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what Wikipedia is. Wikipedia is not a place like social media; it does not have "official pages" for people. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that has articles about various subjects. Those articles summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage state about (in this case) people, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. There are also more specific guidelines for certain fields, like musicians and politicians. Wikipedia is not interested in what people want to say about themselves(be it directly or through a representative), only in what others completely unconnected with them say about them. If you want to request that others write articles about your clients, you can make a request at Requested Articles. You should be aware, however, that there are tens of thousands of requests there and very few volunteers to fulfill requests, and as such it could be a long time, if ever, for your requests to be fulfilled. The best thing you can do is just to allow independent editors to take note of your clients in independent sources and choose to write about them; that is how the vast majority of articles are written.

You should also be aware that even if your clients merit a Wikipedia article and someone creates it for them, it is not necessarily a good thing. There are good reasons to not want an article. The subject has no more rights to an article about them than any other editor. They cannot dictate what appears there or lock it to the text they might prefer. They cannot prevent others from editing it. Any information, good or bad, can be in an article as long as it appears in an independent reliable source and is not defamatory. Please keep this in mind. 331dot (talk) 19:36, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I will add that Wikipedia has no interest in enhancing search results for your clients, helping their fans, or in otherwise aiding their "internet presence". We're just here to build an encyclopedia of human knowledge. 331dot (talk) 19:37, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for sharing this information. I have some knowledge of wikipedia. That's why I hired someone else so that he can write and publish my clients article on Wikipedia. But it is taking long time to get approval.

That's why I want to get in touch with someone professional who can easily write and publish my articles. Also I'm willing to pay to the editors so that no one else can change before owners Confirmation.

Is that something wikipedia editors offer? Gaganmehra93 (talk) 19:42, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Paid editing is not solicited on Wikipedia itself. People do offer Wikipedia editing as a service on outside websites, with varying degrees of reputability. Wikipedia does not endorse or support any particular paid editors or businesses that offer it as a service. Despite what they will tell you, they can make no guarantees(such as writing an article that will not be deleted) and as such you should not hand over any money until you see the finished product. You should also be aware that paid editors- while permitted- are usually scrutinized heavily by other editors. Most editors here are volunteers who are here for the benefit of this project itself and not getting anything material out of it and some are offended at people trying to make money off Wikipedia participation. I'm just letting you know that's out there.

Note that the person whom you hired will also need to comply with WP:PAID and declare that status. 331dot (talk) 19:51, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Actually my client is a producer/Director and worked on many Netflix projects and created many series. He wrote an article on his work and submitted it.

Will it get approved? If approved, will it be searchable on Google on directors name ? Gaganmehra93 (talk) 19:55, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Without seeing it, I can only say that if the article only summarizes what others say about them with significant coverage(which does not include press releases/routine coverage) and not what they want to say about themselves, and they show they meet the Wikipedia definition of a notable producer, it would be accepted. 331dot (talk) 19:57, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think I have to ask this to you. But still it would be nice if we can connect via Skype or Email for long term relationship. I'll be obliged. Gaganmehra93 (talk) 19:59, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, as a matter of policy I confine Wikipedia discussions to Wikipedia. Others, however, may be willing to do what you ask. 331dot (talk) 20:03, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's ok. I will contact you again here if needed any of your help. Thank you so much for your time Gaganmehra93 (talk) 20:06, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at Wikipedia:Help desk, (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. David Biddulph (talk) 08:53, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
