Wikipedia agency comparison: prices and guarantees
You are not just buying a Wikipedia page, but the team that will stand behind it after publication. We compare agencies on reliability, what happens after a rejection, guarantees and the ability to support a client for years.
WikiBusines: our side of the comparison is an English company page from €2,400, 4–5 weeks, 90 days of defence, a 80% refund after 3 attempts and yearly support from €720.
The largest specialist Wikipedia agency in Europe
2010
year we started working with Wikipedia
Ask about the year of the first Wikipedia project, not the year the firm was registered.
4,000+
clients
One dot on the chart equals 25 clients.
23
in-house wiki editors
Ask who exactly will write the article: an in-house editor or a contractor.
90days
of monitoring, support and guarantee in the package
Ask whether monitoring is included in the price or sold separately.
80%
refund, on terms
If a published page could not be defended after 3 attempts.
160+
Wikipedia language editions
Ask which language editions the agency has already published in.
02 Two ways of working
Wikipedia page creation: one-off project or long-term partnership
Both models exist on the market, and not every agency works in only one of them. The difference is where your contract ends.
Project Delivery
Source audit, draft, editorial review, publication, initial monitoring.
Long-Term Stewardship
Monitoring, updates, risk response, consulting, annual governance.
The partnership continues after publication: monitoring, updates and risk response on an annual plan, if you need one.
03 How to choose
How to choose a Wikipedia agency: seven criteria
The creation price is in every sales email. These seven points usually aren’t, so ask about them yourself.
Source assessment before the contract
A page stands on independent sources. If there are too few, an honest agency tells you before payment, not after a rejection.
Which of our sources do you consider usable, and why?

05 After a rejection
If Wikipedia rejects the page: what we do next
We don’t disappear after the first rejection. We review the feedback, reassess the evidence and pursue the next policy-compliant step where justified.
We read what Wikipedia’s editors actually said: missing sources, tone or format.
→ what exactly is wrongThe client buys not guaranteed approval from independent editors, but an organised process with agreed follow-up actions, monitoring and contractual responsibility.
06 Our commitments
WikiBusines guarantees: protection after publication
Refund on terms
If a deleted page cannot be restored after 3 attempts within the 90-day monitoring window.
Monitoring included
After publication we watch the page at no extra cost and respond to edits and tags.
Source assessment first
Before the contract we check your sources against notability criteria and tell you which are usable.
07 Lifecycle
Wikipedia page lifecycle: what happens after publication
Publication is the beginning. Other people edit the page, the rules change and the company grows. Nobody can honestly promise permanence, but you can have a plan.
Disputes, new language editions, company changes. Nobody guarantees permanence, but there is a process for responding.

11 Your situation
Which Wikipedia agency to choose: by company type
First check whether there are grounds
For a young company the main risk is the sources. Start with an assessment so you don’t pay for a page that gets deleted.
- An honest assessment before the contract
- What to do if sources are thin
- A clear audit price
Look for a partner for years
The page already matters to clients and partners. Value monitoring and the response to edits.
- Post-publication monitoring
- An update plan
- Refund terms
Process and reporting matter
Legal, PR and procurement will want documents. Check SLAs, reporting and team continuity.
- Contract and NDA
- Agreed SLAs
- Several language editions
Care matters more than speed
Source requirements for people are strict, and biographies of living people get special attention from editors.
- Independent coverage of you
- Experience with articles about people
- What happens with disputed edits
You need a reliable delivery partner
You answer to your own client. Look for a transparent process and predictable timelines.
- Work under your brand
- Predictable timelines
- An honest no when sources are weak
First find out why it was deleted
The page was deleted and the same text cannot simply be repeated. You need an analysis of the reasons and new evidence.
- Analysis of the deletion discussion
- New independent sources
- A realistic view of the chances
12 FAQ and methodology
Agency comparison: FAQ and methodology
Can you guarantee publication?
No. Independent Wikipedia editors make the decision, and an honest agency cannot control them. We guarantee the process, monitoring and contractual terms, including the refund.
What happens if the page is deleted?
Within the 90-day monitoring window we make up to 3 attempts to restore it. If it cannot be restored, we refund 80% under the contract terms.
What is included after 90 days?
After the monitoring window the page is your responsibility unless you choose an annual plan: Annual Support, Managed Protection or Enterprise Governance.
Is paid editing allowed?
Yes, if the editor discloses payment as the Wikimedia Terms of Use require. Ask the agency exactly how it does this.
Why do you call yourselves the largest in Europe?
By number of clients and in-house wiki editors: 4,000+ clients since 2010, 50+ specialists, 23 in-house wiki editors. These are company figures.
Why do some table cells say “on request”?
Because some agencies do not publish this data. We show only what we found on their sites and state the date we checked.
How we compared
- We looked only at the agencies’ own sites, not at reviews or rankings.
- The table carries the date it was checked.
- We did not analyse the agencies’ contracts or general terms, which may contain other details.
- We give no scores or places, because they would be our opinion rather than fact.
- We will correct any error within 24 hours of being told.
