Fednav Group

Hi,

I am not sure if I have fully understood what you want to do. You cannot "take control" of a Wikipedia article since everybody may edit it. So may you, though as someone affiliated with the article's subject, you will have to be careful to strictly adhere to a neutral point of view. If "taking control" means what User:Comm2008 did, i.e. replacing the article with "www.fednav.com", that is not possible. I reverted that because you removed all the information from the article and is furthermore regarded as advertising - something WP was not made for.

If your company is notable enough you are going to have to live with the fact that there is a WP article about it. Of course you won't have to accept any slanderous edits or disclosure of company secrets. But from what I can see all the information in the article is taken from your website anyway. So it is publicly available and WP just puts it into an encyclopedic form. That is what users expect when they are searching for your company on Wikipedia. If they only wanted to find your homepage, they would be better off using Google.

I hope I could clear things up a little.

By the way, when editing a talk page please add the new entry to the bottom of the page - that way you make sure the page stays in chronological order and the new entry is actually found (I didn't see your edit at first).

Regards,

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
