Coming in 2027: Wikipedia profiles for Somali companies
In 2027 Ogaal will start helping Somali companies get their story on Wikipedia, where most of them are still missing today.
In 2027 Ogaal will launch a new service: helping Somali companies and organizations get a page on Wikipedia, with their history and key facts written down and backed by sources.
Why this matters
When people want to learn about a company, they search for it online, and Wikipedia is often one of the first results. Most companies in Somalia have no page there yet. That leaves partners, investors, and customers with little to go on, and it leaves the story of Somali business largely unwritten.
What we will do
- Collect the company's history, milestones, and facts.
- Find the published sources Wikipedia needs, such as news reports and official records.
- Prepare a clear, neutral draft written the way Wikipedia expects.
- Guide the submission and follow it through review.
Done by the rules
Wikipedia is written by volunteers and has strict rules. A company needs to be covered by independent, published sources before it can have a page, and paid help must be openly disclosed. We will work within those rules, so we cannot promise a page to every company. What we can promise is an honest check of whether your company qualifies and a careful, complete submission if it does.
We will share the launch date and details in 2027. If you want your company to be among the first, contact us and we will add you to the list.
