yes the article was not of encyclopedic quality and language yet, but i was about to do all that when an administrator stepped in after 10mins and deleted it all!

i know that the deletion of this article has not been requested - but it has happened before without any chances to make improvements by a overzealous administrator by the name of acroterion. i wasn't even able to restore older versions but had to START FROM SCRATCH. again thank you very much for spitting into my soup acroterion.

Yes, so many editors and admins are quick on the "unencyclopedic" trigger and don't give artices a chance to grow. It seems they think that "encyclopedic" means "long." Rather than fix the article according to whatever they see wrong, it's deleted. I had an article dubbed a "stub" a few years back, not much information was available on the subject so it was short, and it lasted about 4 months before it was deleted. A recent issue of Time magazine had a half page illustration and several lines in the article devoted to the same "unencyclopedic" subject. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.230.77.120 (talk) 15:58, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox Issues

I went to add the company's slogan to the infobox, only to see that it is already there in the source code. Why is it invisible in the actual article? Can someone please repair the infobox? Thanks! Steevven1 ^{(Talk) (Contribs) (Gallery)} 03:10, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
