Marketing plan

[edit]

Hi. I noticed that you seem to have run into some problems with your additions to the marketing plan article, and I wanted to remind you of a few things

  1. If your edits are reverted, don't reinstate your content without first discussing the problem.
  2. Wikipedia articles are encyclopedia articles. They're supposed to report what scholarly sources say about the topic. They're not supposed to include "how to" type information or include steps that a reader should take. You're describing what exists, you aren't telling people how to do something.
  3. In terms of tone, if you're inclined to use the first or second person in your writing, you're probably getting the tone wrong. An encyclopedia article isn't supposed to be convincing readers of anything.
  4. Every statement you make needs to be tied directly to a reliable source. After the statement, there should be a source. You can use a single source to support several sentences in a row, if it supports everything you say in those sentences, but you need to have at least one source per paragraph, and you shouldn't have any text after the final reference in a paragraph (because that content is effectively unsourced).
  5. Remember to use high-quality sources, mostly peer-reviewed literature or scholarly books.
