Pecánek says, “In this guide, you’ll learn how to create a Wikipedia page from start-to-finish, and how to stand the best chance of getting it approved long-term:

  1. Check your notability
  2. Find sources to establish notability
  3. Create a user page
  4. Build your reputation
  5. Create an outline
  6. Draft your page
  7. Format, cite and categorize
  8. Prepare to submit for review
  9. Adjust and cooperate
  10. Monitor your entries

Let’s kick this off with the dealbreaker.

1. Check your notability

The most common reason why Wikipedia pages fail the review process is the lack of notability.

And here’s the harsh reality: Your brand is less notable than you think.

I had no doubt about the notability of Ahrefs. We have arguably the most popular SEO toolset and pretty much everyone in the industry has mentioned us at one point or another”.
