Hi Giraffer! First, thanks for your feedback. Second, thanks, too, from one editor to another for your precision and oversight of this precious (in a good way!) platform and resource. Third, please also excuse the delayed response…kids + work + life post-covid have made everything run more slowly on my end. And lastly, please see my responses to the speedy deletion action, which outlines my explanation of the rationale for inclusion and clarification of any perception of conflicts of interest.

Contesting Page Deletion edit

I am an editorial writer and editor with a long (and traceable) history in the world of journalism and information science. I am working on a project that sheds new light on the evolution of kitchen systems throughout history, from the Middle Ages to the present, and Henrybuilt is the only American-based outfit producing the kind of performance kitchens that define the most recent shift in a new era of kitchen design (the rest are in Europe). Thus, I’d like to create an ecosystem where what they do lives in the context of a larger historical design shift that tracks with systems theory and product language. Please let me know why I am being deleted. Wafflesbarnwell (talk) 22:57, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

A second note re: Speedy Deletion edit

My work is always grounded in probable facts. Note that I didn’t create the page in question with skewed statements or conjecture. It was simply an effort to take long-standing, grounded, and authenticated information about a 15+-year endeavor (with citations from numerous agenda-free organizations attesting to the veracity of the page contents) to include a commercial venture with cultural impact into the wikipedia sphere—and if it’s helpful to acknowledge precedent among administrators, I am happy point to many other business-based entities who have established pages. Thanks so much for reconsidering the submission and/or offering feedback for strengthening my efforts. So appreciate you. Wafflesbarnwell (talk) 23:41, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
