Blog Ghostwriting: My first Wikipedia entry!

As a copywriter, I get asked about all sorts of marketing-, sales- and advertising-related writing assignments and projects. Lately, I have been approached a couple of times about writing for Wikipedia, the online free encyclopedia that is open to all for writing and editing.

This kind of writing is not salesy or full of hype (in fact, that kind of writing will get you banished to a Wikipedia Timeout!). This kind of writing is longer form, informative, newsworthy and factual, just like the encyclopedias that used to be found only in libraries or in the 26-volume set on your parents' (or your) bookshelves.

I did some searching and found that there was no entry for "Blog Ghostwriting," which happens to be a service we at Get It In Writing offer.

I took some time to write a short (three paragraph) informative entry (with no sales pitch copy whatsoever)on the topic and now am just trying to figure out if I categorized it correctly and if so, when it will actually post to the Wikipedia pages.

If you see it or if you have any insight, let me know!
