Sure, I can help you. Could you proved me with the information that you have compiled about OSL Consulting. Just post it on my talk page. I will take a look and assist you.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 11:08, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The concern that I have noticed is the references. References make or break many wikipedia articles. The first issue is that the reference is from the OSL Consulting website. Wikipedia policy is that articles should not be a form of promotion or advertising for a company. In addition, the article is has primary sources. Although wikipedia allows the use of primary sources, primary sources are often difficult to use appropriately. "While they can be both reliable and useful in certain situations, they must be used with caution in order to avoid original research. While specific facts may be taken from primary sources, secondary sources that present the same material are preferred. Large blocks of material based purely on primary sources should be avoided. All interpretive claims, analyses, or synthetic claims about primary sources must be referenced to a secondary source, rather than original analysis of the primary-source material by Wikipedia editors. Wikipedia articles should be based mainly on reliable secondary sources."-Faiz Haider

My suggestion is that you comply more references from secondary sources like the Institute of Chemical Engineers. The other trick/tip, reference as much as possible (try to reference every sentence if possible) because once you reference the material and someone deletes it. The editor who deleted the sourced material would be vandalizing, you could easily revert the deleted material and scare the vandal by adding one of the following tags Wikipedia:Twinkle or Wikipedia:Huggle. In addition, you could contact the administration for unfair deletion/vandalism (for serious cases like repeat deletion).

In the case of the article: OSL Consulting, I would just try to find resources other than the company website for reference and references most of the sentences. Zabranos (talk) 06:52, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you have any other concerns/question in the future, feel free to comment on my talk page. Zabranos (talk) 11:55, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article OSL Consulting is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/OSL Consulting until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 13:55, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I added a sub section called EKB Project to the OSL article and commented on the talk page. Hope this helps out. (Just keep adding more info to the article). Zabranos (talk) 20:43, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I also noticed that most of the article is the same as the previous one with different references. This might be the cause of them considering to delete it. Add more informations like the EKB Project (that I added). Zabranos (talk) 22:43, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:OSL Consulting logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:00, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
