- Source and Research: Identify independent, reliable references to support a comprehensive article draft.
- Draft Article: Write the article using Wikipedia's formatting, tone, and structural guidelines.
- Submit for Review: Manage the Articles for Creation (AfC) or direct submission process, including revisions based on editor feedback.
- Maintain Standards: Ensure all content aligns with Wikipedia's editorial and sourcing expectations.
Qualifications
- Demonstrated history of publishing successful Wikipedia articles, particularly company pages.
- Active editing history on Wikipedia and familiarity with community norms and reviewer expectations.
- Strong research and writing skills, especially in presenting technical or corporate topics in a neutral, encyclopedic tone.
