ARTICLE SUGGESTIONS

Know a person, company, organization, product, place, technology, event, or other subject that WikiPartner should consider documenting?

Send us a short suggestion with enough reliable information for editors to understand the subject and decide whether it may be suitable for an encyclopedia article.

Free to suggest Editorially reviewed No publication guarantee


Before you suggest

01
Check WikiPartner first

Search for the subject before submitting. If an article already exists, improve or correct the existing page instead of sending a duplicate suggestion.

02
Find useful sources

Most suggestions should include at least two useful sources that help editors confirm who or what the subject is and why it is worth documenting.

03
Keep it factual

Describe the subject clearly and neutrally. Do not submit advertising copy, exaggerated claims, false information, or unsupported achievements.


What to include

1

Subject name

Provide the correct and commonly used name of the person, business, organization, product, place, or other subject.
2

Why it should be covered

Give a short factual explanation of what makes the subject useful or relevant for readers.
3

Reliable sources

Include useful links such as news coverage, industry publications, official records, interviews, books, professional sources, or other material that can be checked.
4

Important facts

Share key information that can help editors understand the subject, such as career, history, work, products, achievements, locations, or public activity.
5

Your connection to the subject

Tell us if you are the subject, work for the subject, represent them, or have another direct connection.


Ready to suggest a subject?

Send the basic information and sources. You do not need to write a complete encyclopedia article.



What happens after submission?

01
Editorial review

Editors review the subject name, information provided, and any disclosed connection to the subject.

02
Source check

Editors may review the submitted sources, look for additional information, and check whether the subject meets WikiPartner's inclusion guidelines and source guidelines.

03
Editorial decision

A suggestion may be accepted, declined, held for more research, or used to improve an existing article.


Accepted

Suitable for further article work.

Needs research

More reliable information may be required.

The suggestion does not currently meet the requirements.
