When you leave messages, please remember to "sign" your name, by putting ~~~~ (four tilde signs) at the end. This will add your name, and the date and time.
I moved this helpme request from User talk:Godilya/Zeptouch, please use the 'helpme' template here, on your user talk page.
Firstly, a question: are you connected to the subject in some way, in business, or whatever? If not, skip this part. If so, then you have a conflict of interest, and thus it is very difficult to write a neutral, acceptable article. If this is the case, then we strongly recommend that you do not create the article. There are options available to create an appropriately sourced article in your user area, and then request that it is created. Please read this essay on best practice, and the business FAQ
Next - notability. In order to have an article on Wikipedia, the subject must meet the notability guidelines. The simplest, most important one is the general notability guideline, which says a subject needs significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. That carefully-worded phrase explains quite a lot;
Significant coverage - such as, a number of news articles about the article topic - not passing mentions
Reliable sources - well, this is defined in some detail in WP:RS, but the essence of it is - something that is generally trusted - such as the BBC, CNN, The New York Times. Books are good, too. Blog-sites are rarely reliable.
Independent - we don't use primary sources, such as the persons own website, or their publishers/labels website, or anything like that. We avoid press-releases. We want secondary coverage - other people independently writing about the subject.
In the case of this article, looking on the internet, I am unable to find any appropriate sources - for example, there is nothing here in Google News search; therefore I think it will be difficult to establish notability. I'm sorry.
I suggest that you consider working on some other existing articles - perhaps something of interest. I hope that you will continue to work on WIkipedia, and I assure you that I will help in any way I can. For more help, you can either;
- Leave a message on my own talk page;
OR - Use a {{helpme}} - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put {{helpme}}, and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~~~~ at the end;
OR - Talk to us live, with this or this.

- You have asked for help on this at my talk page. I endorse what Chzz has written above; if you need any more help, feel free to ask specific questions either here or over at my talk page. A.C. Norman (talk) 16:53, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Ilya Gazman 21:58, 2 September 2009 (UTC) {{helpme}} Yes Zeptouch is my company. But I am posting this article for Wikipedia because this is new technology invention that is not exists in the world just yet and I am the first one to ship it. So how exactly can I get help writing it?
- Hi again.
- I do understand, but I ask you to please consider that Wikipedia does not make things famous; it reports on things that are already famous - ie, things that have been in the newspapers etc. I am simplifying here, but really I am re-stating what I said above.
- A: You are strongly advised to not write an article about something that you are involved with. - it is very difficult to be neutral about such things.
- B: The facts need independent, reliable sources - if the information cannot be checked by the person reading the article, by referring to the reliable sources given, then it is not suitable for inclusion.
- Please, come and talk to us live, with this or this. We will help you in any way we can to add to Wikipedia, as long as the information is verifiable. Chzz ► 23:12, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of User:Godilya/Zeptouch edit
A tag has been placed on User:Godilya/Zeptouch requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
