Hello, Spardue13. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:
- avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
- instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. -- Ed (Edgar181) 12:46, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Edgar, This request for speedy deletion was inappropriate and untimely. The page was in draft form so the historical foundation could be posted, a link created and pushed out to the dental community for editing. In less than 12 hours the draft was deleted an did not permit any of these actions from taking place. My relationship with Elevate Oral Care is publicly disclosed as instructed by Wikipedia in my profile. No where on the page was listed any promotional information, citations were to third party publications and professional dental organizations (most non commercial). One link was provided to Elevate Oral Care website and equal links were provided to other mentioned, competing companies. Please re-post the article. Steve
- You cannot expect to be taken seriously when the "article" is full of marketing-speak crap like "to deliver unique solutions to the professional dental market". It is possible this company is notable, but we don't tolerate advertisements masking as articles. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:05, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
@Orangemike:, A constructive moderator and editor would remove or alter comments they deemed marketing (the statement you highlighted is not marketing, by the way) rather than deleting the entire page. If you feel those comments are marketing, I encourage you to disprove the statement in a constructive manner. What would you remove to make it non "marketing" in your opinion? (edit to the previous post: The request for speedy deletion of Draft: Elevate Oral Care site was inappropriate and untimely. The page was in draft form so the historical foundation could be posted, a link created and pushed out to the dental community for editing. In less than 12 hours the draft was deleted an did not permit any of these actions from taking place. My relationship with Elevate Oral Care is publicly disclosed as instructed by Wikipedia in my profile. Additionally, my posting of the background information is appropriate in that we are a privately held company and there are no Securities Exchange Commissions listings or other references to provide such information. A citation was provided to our articles of incorporation. Only a principal of the organization would have the knowledge to post such information. No where on the page was listed any promotional information, citations were to third party publications and professional dental organizations (most non commercial). One link was provided to Elevate Oral Care website and equal links were provided to other mentioned competing companies. One of our products already has a Wikipedia page (Silver Diamine Fluoride) and has been Breakthrough Therapy Designation by the Food and Drug Administration (as a life saving product), and we have been added to the World Health Organizations list of essential medications (page 18 the following reference).[1] Please re-post the article, and assist me by removing any material you deem as marketing. The page will be sent to the dental community for modifications as soon as possible.)Spardue13 (talk) 13:14, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
