Dear Leoguerra33,

thanks for your message on my user talk page. The text you added to the article was an exact copy of several texts on the company's homepage. You did not provide any kind of license from the company which would have been required. One possible way to adress this issue is to ask the owner of the copyright and obtain permission for reuse under the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License (CC-BY-SA) and the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL). Please read WP:IOWN for further information how to avoid copyright issues when providing material you or your company owns.

However, please keep in mind that this might solve only the issue with WP:CSD G12, not G11. For that purpose the second, and better, way would be to rewrite the article refraining from copying texts from the company's homepage. Of course you can (and should) use the company's homepage as a reference. But the article should be written idependently from it. The way your article was formulated before, it sounded far too much like being aimed only at promoting your company. Of course the company may use it's own homepage for advertising, but not Wikipedia (WP:SOAP). Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and all it's articles must be written from a neutral point of view.

Please be assured that I am in no way opposing the idea of having an article about your company on wikipedia or claiming any lack of notability. But the article has to adhere to wikipedia's guidelines, as mentioned above. I am confident that you and your colleagues will be able to write such an article soon. You may also want to create your article as a user subpage while you are still in the process of formulating the various parts. However, please note that copyrighted material is not allowed on user subpages either. If you need any assistance you can always place the Template:Help me on your user talk page. Of course you can also approach me if you have any further questions.

Looking forward to your new article! Happy editing!
