You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
The article Umbrella media worke has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.
Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:26, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- The article did not show how this company is notable per WP:CORP (one news article showing that it won one contract doesn't do it). NawlinWiki (talk) 17:36, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- You're just going to have to wait until you can find reliable sources (WP:V) showing that the company is notable now, not that it might be notable some day in the future. As far as other articles, see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. NawlinWiki (talk) 17:47, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- Respectfully, no. If our standard was "we will allow any article that might in the future meet our notability criteria", we would effectively have no notability criteria at all. NawlinWiki (talk) 18:11, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

I'm curious as to why you asked me to look at this article. I don't edit in this area at all. Anyhow, I've had look at it. This seems to be a rewrite (or copy) of an article deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Umbrella Media. Unfortunately, this new (?) version would never pass a deletion discussion. It has no significant coverage in reliable independent sources and given that the company is less than a year old, is unlikely to have any for quite some time. None of the "references" you've listed even mention the company. I suggest you read WP:FAQ/Organizations to get a better idea of what's required and why a Wikipedia article on this company isn't appropriate. A couple of other things...
