Advice

edit

It seems interesting that you have written three articles, all about companies in different fields that are at best borderline notable. I call your attention to WP:COI, and remind you that if you are doing paid editing for organizations, this is a particularly strong form of Conflict of Interest.

As a general rule, a suitable page will be best written by someone without Conflict of Interest; it's not impossible to do it properly with a conflict of interest or as a paid press agent, but it's relatively more difficult: you are automatically thinking in terms of what the subject wishes to communicate to the public, but an uninvolved person will think in terms of what the public might wish to know. Though this form of editing is not absolutely prohibited, it is considered best practice to use WP:Articles for Creation.

For further information see our practical guide to conflict of interest, WP:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. DGG ( talk ) 16:52, 11 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Deletion discussion about Ultralife Corporation

edit

Hello, Ice823cream,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Ultralife Corporation should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ultralife Corporation .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
