You must properly disclose your employment

Hello Lisalifepharm. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Lisalifepharm. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Lisalifepharm|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Ian.thomson (talk) 23:05, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
How to create a page about your company
edit1. Go to your user page (User:Lisalifepharm) and fill out the following template there: {{paid|user=Lisalifepharm|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
2. Consider that if your company really was notable, you wouldn't need to write the article. Remember that articles are owned by the Wikipedia community as a whole, not the article subject or the article author. If your company do not want other people to write about it, then starting an article is a bad idea.
3. Make sure the company's notability is attested by discussions of it in several reliable independent sources.
4. Gather as many professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic sources about the company you can find. Also, while search engine results are not sources, they are where you can find sources. Just remember that they need to be professionally-published mainstream academic or journalistic sources. Press releases are not independent and so are useless -- don't waste your time with them.
5. Focus on just the ones that are not dependent upon nor affiliated with the company, but still specifically about the company and providing in-depth coverage (not passing mentions). If you do not have at least three such sources, the company is not yet notable and trying to write an article at this point will only fail.
6. Summarize those sources you kept after step 5, adding citations at the end of them. You'll want to do this in a program with little/no formatting, like Microsoft Notepad or Notepad++, and not in something like Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer. Make sure this summary is just bare statement of facts, phrased in a way that even the company's competitors can agree with.
7. Combine overlapping summaries where possible (without arriving at new statements that no individual source supports), repeating citations as needed.
8. Paraphrase the whole thing just to be extra sure you've avoided any copyright violations or plagiarism. Do not copy and paste text from any source. Even if you have permission to use that text, other people on this site do not.
9. Use the Article wizard to post this draft and wait for approval.
10a. If the article is accepted, never edit it again. Instead, make edit requests on the article's talk page.
10b. If the article is rejected, there will be aa reason given. Read it carefully and closely. If there are links in the reason, open them and read those pages.
