Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, Ket07, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I notice that one of the first articles you edited was BINDER (company), which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! You can also just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Hi Ket07, when creating or editing articles on Wikipedia, it's important to avoid (even the appearance of) a promotional tone. Sentences like "The South of Germany is known for its entrepreneurial spirit and the Binder family was no exception" shouldn't be used: at best, they're hollow, and at worst, they sound like they're promoting the subject instead of describing it. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page or visit Wikipedia:New contributors' help page. Happy editing! Sindinero (talk) 07:33, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

BINDER article - sourcing

[edit]

Hi Ket07, i have reinserted the maintenance tags in the BINDER article. None of the cited statements is really supported by the used source. Also the problem with overly promotional statements with almost no sources still remains. If those issues are not addressed, the article will eventually be nominated for deletion as purely promotional. Wikipedia has clear policies against company advertisement, WP:SPAM and WP:COI-articles. If you have questions about those issues, you can always contact me or an experienced administrator for more information. Regards. GermanJoe (talk) 18:04, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Some comments about BINDER article

[edit]

Hello Ket07, i checked the article and have some more comments:

  • Some outstanding, too positive statements have been removed, good. A few more see below.
  • You may want to contact User:MikeWazowski about details to his maintenance tags. Different editors have different opinions, what constitutes "advertisement", so it's always better to check such concerns.
  • "As Peter Michael Binder grew up he became involved in ..." and "After completing his studies, Peter Michael Binder opted to sell ... " ==> there is some missing fact in this narrative: Binder "became involved" and then "opted to sell". Just doing daily operations doesn't authorize him to sell the business, so there has to be some missing change in ownership between the two statements. Should be clarified, who had the final responsibility about company matters in this period.
  • "Beyond reinvestment into the business, BINDER has also worked [to give back] " ==> avoid statements about intents and emotions, when not absolutely necessary. Here you can just state, that Binder initiated this award to support promising researchers."
  • " In 2005 Peter Michael Binder spearheaded, along with 139 other companies, the creation of the Tuttlingen University Campus." ==> source [5] does not explicitly support "spearheaded" (=leading role). If he had an outstanding leading role as primary organizer, you need another source. Otherwise the 140 companies were more equal in their efforts and "spearheaded" is too strong as statement.
  • "Products" and "Markets" - Pure lists are generally discouraged in Wiki-articles, but sometimes necessary. If possible, try to rephrase as regular prose and fill the list entries with some additional factual details.
  • "Products" and "Markets" - notability: generally try to limit the informations to notable facts (the most "common" products and the "regular" markets). If a product was only sold once or twice in the company's history, it's not noteworty encyclopedic, same for small or only occasional markets.
  • (sourced) information about market shares for the main products would be interesting to add.
  • A final note: make sure to continue to look for other reliable sources. 5 sources should be generally ok as lower limit, but are still very thin, especially if someone (not me) decides to challenge the article's notability or it's initially too positive presentation of the company.

I hope, these pointers are helpful to improve the article. GermanJoe (talk) 11:24, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
