There are many reasons why you may want to revise your Wikipedia entry:
– outdated information
– inaccuracies that portray your company unfavorably
– content that is factually incorrect
– an article that no longer meets Wikipedia’s quality standards
and many more.
In all these cases, it makes sense to have the article professionally updated. We first review the existing entry, then revise and expand it with accurate, up-to-date information. This ensures you receive a polished article that reflects current standards and fully complies with Wikipedia’s guidelines.
As a DAX-listed company or large corporation, you are automatically considered relevant for the German Wikipedia. However, many companies are dissatisfied with their current entry and want it revised. Feel free to contact us if you’d like to have your Wikipedia article updated. We’ll be happy to take care of your revision requests.
Many mid-sized companies are considered relevant for the German Wikipedia and already have an article. However, these entries often no longer reflect the latest information or contain inaccuracies about the company. Feel free to contact us if you’d like to have your Wikipedia article updated — we may be able to help you improve your existing entry.
As a professional Wikipedia agency, we not only help companies update their existing Wikipedia entries. We also support you if you want to have a new article created or if you need an entry in another language in addition to German.
In theory, anyone can create a Wikipedia entry. That’s the concept of Wikipedia — everyone can contribute and write an article. However, certain conditions must be met for an entry to be published.
Following all these rules is nearly impossible if you’re not familiar with how Wikipedia works. It takes time and patience to locate and understand the guidelines, and it also requires a good sense of nuance to strike the right tone for an encyclopedic article.
As a professional Wikipedia agency, we work with experienced authors who create articles strictly in line with Wikipedia’s guidelines. When you choose to have your Wikipedia article written by us, we can also address any community feedback constructively to give your article the best chance of being accepted on Wikipedia.
For international companies, a German article is often not enough. If you need an English article to increase global visibility, Augusta Atlantic can create it for you as well.
However, here’s an important note: the criteria for the English-language Wikipedia differ from those of the German version. We are highly experienced with the English Wikipedia and are happy to support you with content creation. The English Wikipedia does not follow Germany’s relevance criteria — instead, it uses notability guidelines. This means your company or organization must have significant, high-quality, independent media coverage in order to qualify for an article.
Feel free to contact us for creating Wikipedia content in other languages, too!
For changes to be accepted on Wikipedia, an article must meet certain requirements. These include both formal and content-specific guidelines. They are defined by the Wikipedia community and are the result of years of collaboration among established Wikipedia editors — and we adhere to them strictly.
Different availability of sources:
Another topic may have had more sources available, allowing more information to be included in the article during content creation.
Older article:
As interest in obtaining a Wikipedia entry has increased, the community has become more strict when reviewing new articles. What was approved five years ago may no longer meet today’s standards.
Question of notability:
If a competitor has a Wikipedia page, it may seem logical that you should get one as well. However, this often comes down to notability, and there may be a key difference that only experienced Wikipedia specialists can identify.
After one of our experienced Wikipedia authors has created a draft article, you will receive it for review. We make as many revision rounds as needed until you’re fully satisfied and all your requests have been incorporated. After that, one of our team members will guide you through creating the Wikipedia entry and submitting it for review. You press the keys — we simply walk you through the process.
Please fill out the following form to let us check the notability of your article for Wikipedia and get in touch with you.
“We look forward to your inquiry!”
