[edit] Kotak International Products
A tag has been placed on Kotak International Products, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. If you can indicate why Kotak International Products is really not blatant advertising, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk: Kotak International Products. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11 under General criteria. You might also want to read the guidelines on spam. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert why the article is not blatant advertising, please affix the template {{hangon}}
to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. Tonywalton | Talk 11:34, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
The same applies to List of Kotak's International offerings. Tonywalton | Talk 11:36, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia has criteria for inclusion of articles on companies; please see WP:CORP. If the company meets these you need to add this information to the article, citing reliable sources. The article also needs to be presented from a neutral point of view. That means removing statements like With a 20 year track record of solid credentials (unless you can cite sources for what the "credentials" are and for their being "solid"), leveraging the group’s strong asset management capabilities ("strong" in what sense? Who, apart from the company itself, says it has "strong capabilities"?) and so on. You mention articles on Google - you may notice that there's nothing in there saying how good Google is, unlike your article, which currently reads like a prospectus. By the way if you wish an article to be deleted as it was mistakenly created simply add {{db-author}} at the top. The following may be of use to you:
