I would add that Wikipedia is not social media for making a "company profile". This is an encyclopedia, where article subjects must be shown with independent reliable sources to be notable. If you are employed by this company, you need to review the policies linked to in the notice above. You should avoid directly creating an article about your company, instead using Articles for Creation. In order to be successful in doing so, however, you will need to forget everything you know about your company and only write based on what independent sources state about it. That does not include things like press releases, the company website, transcripts of interviews with company staff, or any primary source. Please keep this in mind. If you just want to tell the world about your company, you should use actual social media like Facebook. 331dot (talk) 12:19, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
