WIKIPEDIA STRATEGY & MANAGEMENT

Wikipedia is an important platform for online reputation – it consistently ranks at the top of Google searches. We have over a decade of experience assisting clients in developing an accurate and favorable presence on Wikipedia, and our approach has evolved alongside the platform.

Today we focus on leveraging our considerable expertise to guide clients in accordance with Wikipedia’s guidelines and standards using Wikipedia’s official “disclosed conflict of interest” (COI) process.

Our in-house team of Wikipedia experts understands the intricacies and nuances of both the technical platform and the community, and provides in-depth analysis and consultation, advising clients on strategy and long-term engagement with the community to bring the articles to a more accurate and desirable place.

Edits made this way tend to persist over time and withstand scrutiny despite the dynamic nature of Wikipedia. With Five Blocks providing insights based on decades of experience in the field, clients have achieved enormous success while contributing to the platform in a transparent, compliant manner.

Our typical programs include elements such as:

Analysis of a client’s notability in order to ascertain if Wikipedia will accept an article about them
Analysis of the current Wikipedia page to identify challenges with the current content and sources
Comparing the current sections in a Wikipedia page with sections that would typically be included in this type of article
Identifying sources and drafting content for potential inclusion in a Wikipedia page
Strategizing regarding the best way to work with the editor community
Engaging with community editors to review and submit proposed content and /or source additions and edits
Responding to edits and inquiries from the community and engaging in discussions aimed at helping improve client pages
Working to get problematic notations and page warnings removed
Helping submit images via the Wikimedia Foundation for inclusion within Wikipedia pages
Monitoring of target pages in order to respond quickly to vandalism
Working to help clients get foreign language Wikipedia pages for their brands or executives as appropriate

Timing: 3 months, at least, plus optional monitoring thereafter
