Unfortunately, quite a few companies aren't even in Wikipedia (of course they should get themselves added).
It's not as simple as that. You have to meet notability requirements or your page is just going to get deleted.

The fact that some companies aren't in Wikipedia is irrelevant. The point was you shouldn't have to go to Wikipedia to find out.

Yup. So it's as "simple" as building a product that's notable enough to be worth a Wikipedia page.

Meh. If I am "notable", then the bar is set pretty damn low.

>>> Tell me what your product is...
And if you are unable to do so without using the word Solutions you probably aren't sure yourself.

Absolutely. Indeed, I think it should be an accessibility requirement for every site to have a "[name] is ..." sentence somewhere on the front page.
I'm glad you led with that one, because I'm constantly asking that very question. Note to website designers: DON'T MAKE ME USE WIKIPEDIA TO FIGURE OUT WTF THE COMPANY DOES!
Unfortunately, quite a few companies aren't even in Wikipedia (of course they should get themselves added). That's the point when I simply give up. Life is too short.
