How to Create a Wikipedia Page?

Users can add pages, articles, and general information to Wikipedia, which is a dynamic user-generated encyclopaedia.

You should be aware that adding a page to Wikipedia is famously difficult if you’re interested in using it for your company’s or your marketing efforts.

Making a Wikipedia page for your company is no easy task given the plethora of rules that govern what information may be posted to the site and the sheer effort required to write a thoroughly researched page on your company.

How to Create a Wikipedia Page?

Here is a brief and useful step-by-step guide to creating a Wikipedia page, even though you should check Wikipedia’s help sections for more in-depth information.

• Start by researching Wikipedia – It can be helpful to learn the ins and outs of being a good Wikipedia citizen so that you can make pages that are less likely to be contested or deleted through the official review process.
• Open an account – Create and edit Wikipedia pages are only available to registered users. Using your genuine name and email address.
• Change the existing pages – Before adding new material, practice your abilities by making modest changes to already existing pages. Start with subjects you are already familiar with.  For example, she added additional biographical details to the website of the fencing coach of her son (an Olympic medalist) and included a link to his fan club’s website.
• Assemble your resources -In Wikipedia, verifiable sources from independent third parties are crucial. It’s an encyclopedia after all, not a sales channel. The information should be impartial and factual.
• Upload the text – You are now prepared to begin writing the suggested Wikipedia page’s content. You can either type it into Wikipedia’s interface manually or copy and paste it from a text document. Your user page has two headers at the top right: Sandbox and My Talk. You can create using either, but My Talk guarantees the page won’t be removed.
• Review the page after submission – Once you’ve finished, send your page to Wikipedia for review. It may take a few days or a few weeks to complete the process (or more).

Once a page is released, keep an eye on it and make any necessary updates.
