In theory, anyone can write a Wikipedia entry. That’s the core idea behind Wikipedia — everyone can contribute and create an article. However, certain requirements must be met for an article to actually be published. Wikipedia has strict guidelines, from determining whether a topic is notable to following detailed content and formatting rules that must be observed during creation. Keeping track of all these rules is nearly impossible if you’re not familiar with the platform. It takes time and patience to find, understand, and apply Wikipedia’s guidelines — and it also requires a good sense of tone to write an article that fits the encyclopedia’s style.If you’re creating a Wikipedia entry for a company, you need to carefully filter which information is relevant and which isn’t. You can certainly write your own article — but it must first be reviewed and approved by a community member.If the article doesn’t meet Wikipedia’s standards, it will be declined. As an agency, we work with experienced writers who only produce articles that follow Wikipedia’s official guidelines. And if there’s any feedback from the community, we can address it constructively to ensure your article still has the chance to be published on Wikipedia.
Wikipedia’s notability criteria are an essential tool for evaluating topics and determining which subjects qualify for their own article. The overview below highlights several notability requirements for organizations and companies. Even if your business or organization doesn’t clearly meet these criteria, we’re happy to review your specific case through a free notability check.
A Wikipedia article can offer several advantages for businesses. It provides a platform to showcase a company’s history, products, and services while also improving visibility in search engines. In addition, having an article creates a sense of credibility and trust, as Wikipedia is widely regarded as a reliable and neutral source of information.
A Wikipedia article is incredibly valuable for public figures. It documents and highlights their achievements, career, and contributions to society. It also enhances visibility and reputation, since such articles often appear among the top search results. Having a dedicated Wikipedia entry is therefore both a form of recognition and an effective tool for communication and building a strong public image.
As a professional Wikipedia agency, we not only support companies that want to have their articles written. We also assist you if you want to update your existing Wikipedia entry or need an article created in another language.
Some Wikipedia articles are hopelessly outdated or simply inaccurate. Older entries may have been created by an inexperienced member of a marketing team. While the article may have been accepted at the time, it no longer meets Wikipedia’s quality standards.In cases like these, it makes sense to have the entry professionally revised. We start by reviewing the existing article, then update and expand it with current, verified information. This ensures you receive a polished, up-to-date entry that fully complies with Wikipedia’s guidelines.
For international companies, a German article is often not enough. If you’d like an English article to improve global visibility, Augusta Atlantic can also create that entry for you. 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 as well and can guide you through the entire process.In the English Wikipedia, notability guidelines apply instead of the German relevance criteria. This means your company or organization must have substantial, high-quality, independent media coverage in order to qualify for an article.Feel free to contact us if you need Wikipedia articles in other languages, too!
To be accepted on Wikipedia, an article must meet certain requirements. These include both formal and content-related guidelines. They are established by the Wikipedia community and are the result of years of collaboration among experienced 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.
