If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Your submission at Articles for creation: YETI Coolers (August 23)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Wxidea was:

Hi. You've been in proposal limbo for a while. I think you are getting close, but this article still reads a bit too promotionally, and not encyclopedic enough. Try to step back, imagine you were writing an article about some other company, e.g. a company making luxury toilets. What would you say? How would you say it. This is mostly a tone detail now. Though it would be great to have some press coverage cited which is not a review. The Ad Age link is dead. The Bloomberg article is great, but if you have another like that, cite it.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, Maggie Edmunds. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article YETI (company), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Falcon8765 ^(TALK) 01:18, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
