Promotional tone

edit

If a draft is written in a strongly promotional tone, it can be subjected to Speedy deletion even if the creator has not submitted it yet. Key to succeeding is finding reliable source references about the company, written by people who have no connection to the company. What the company writes about itself (website, press releases, interviews with management...) counts for naught. David notMD (talk) 12:00, 5 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

While a draft, a paid editor can work directly on the draft, but once approved as an article, paid editors are restricted to proposing changes on the Talk page of the article, for a non-involved editor to review and decide. Hence, make the draft as complete as possible before submitting. David notMD (talk) 15:31, 5 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Timing

edit

FYI - From when a draft is submitted to AFC to it being reviewed can be days, weeks, or (sadly) months. There is a backlog of >5,000 drafts, and the system is not a queue. If approved, a new article does not become 'visible' to search engines until either approved by new pages patrol or 90 days (whichever first). David notMD (talk) 15:28, 5 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
