Help me!

where do I submit a request to an article published about my company?

Please help me with... I want to get an article published about my company but there is a COI and I can't find a place to submit a request or a stub article. The company this article is about is very similar to mine... Industry: Packaging https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPS_Packaging

RogMorton, there is a phrase called OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, which basically means that simply because one article exists doesn't mean another should as well. That being said, if you want to write about your company and you are aware of all COI rules (and any terms of use restrictions), I would suggest using the Article Wizard to help you write a draft. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, the IRC channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 17:15, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
