- I just have a question, then. Why are biographies of successful multinational corporations such as Microsoft, IBM and Coca-Cola permitted on Wikipedia? There was no inherent promotional material in my post. All I wanted to do was share a description of my company, which I feel is a unique entity, the way in which it was created and what it's about, but my article kept being deleted before I even had the chance to complete two paragraphs. When would it be alright to put my company's bio on Wikipedia? After I gross my first billion, perhaps?

- Coca-Cola, Microsoft, and IBM are known throughout the world. Your company is not. Wikipedia only covers notable companies; no matter how well-written your article is, it will still be deleted for violating the notability policy. Veinor (ヴエノル(talk)) 20:47, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
This is your last warning. The next time you insert blatant advertising into articles, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent advertisers may have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia. Veinor (ヴエノル(talk)) 20:54, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
