Articles for Deletion is a community discussion to decide whether to keep, merge, or delete an article. The outcome is determined by consensus over roughly a week.

Wikipedia is edited by a global community of volunteer editors. Edits are reviewed by other editors, reverted if non-compliant, and refined through Talk-page discussion. Independence is the foundation of the system.

No. The community of independent editors decides what stays. We maximize the odds with well-sourced, neutral, policy-compliant submissions, but no firm can guarantee specific editorial outcomes.

Corporate articles face heightened scrutiny on notability, tone, and sourcing. Independent in-depth coverage is required; promotional language gets reverted; and editors apply notability standards more strictly than for many other topics.

The publishing path is: sourcing analysis, draft creation in sandbox or Articles for Creation, submission with disclosed COI, community editor review, response to feedback, and publication.

Notability requires significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. For companies and people, that means substantive press in authoritative outlets, not press releases or self-published material.

No. Self-creation by the subject or its representatives violates Wikipedia’s conflict of interest policy. The correct path is the disclosed COI process: working transparently through Talk pages with a disclosed paid editor.

COI editing is any editing of an article in which the editor has a financial or personal interest. Wikipedia requires disclosure and steers COI editors away from making direct edits.
