Talk:Mike Rother

Proposed deletion due to notability not demonstrated
I've had a large impact but tend to work from behind the scenes, so that the subject matter of our findings and practitioners who use them are highlighted rather than me. The result is that people tend to write about the findings, not about me, which is great actually. A Google search on "Value Stream Mapping" or "Toyota Kata," for example, can give you an impression of the widesepread reach, the extent of which has surprised me. These topics and terminology did not exist before my research on them was published.

However, I don't disagree with questioning my notability and am not entirely comfortable editing the page on Wikipedia. I understand if it is subject to further scrutiny and applaud Wikipedia for the effort to maintain good standards. Mike734 (talk) 21:17, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

Industrial Technology Institute
I deleted the mention of the Industrial Technology Institute at Ann Arbor, since we had no article on it and it appeared to be non-notable. However, Mike Rother reinstated this and gave an explanation on my talk page, which I accept. – Fayenatic  L ondon 11:02, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
