 * Thanks for the quick and informative feedback! We're going back to the drawing board to see if we can beef this up to meet the standards. JGS53 (talk) 22:55, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Please make sure there's only one person working from this account. You should each have your own account. Star   Mississippi  03:22, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Yup. I'm the only one designated to do the editing, but I'll be sure to let others know to go through me. Meanwhile, do you know of an example of a similar company that meets the suitability criteria? We looked at ADM and Cargill, but they are substantially larger companies. We may be too small to be notable; thought it's worth asking. Thanks. JGS53 (talk) 18:09, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying.
 * I think size is less relevant than looking at the depth of coverage that Icon has received from independent sourcing. Is it passing mentions, or is it in depth discussion of the company, its products/content. Is that helpul? Star   Mississippi  19:58, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's very helpful, thanks. Stay safe! JGS53 (talk) 00:15, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
 * You as well. Star   Mississippi  02:30, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
 * We talked about your direction and decided not to pursue the company page at this time. Rather, we'll work up a CEO profile and evaluate its notability against the criteria you've given us. That's been very helpful. Do I need to withdraw or delete this Icon Foods page from submission? Thanks. JGS53 (talk) 22:54, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi! You can tag with or it will expired in six months of no edits.
 * For the CEO, it might help you to think of it less as a profile and more of a write up. Less what he'd say about himself if speaking at an event and more of what sourcing would say. Is he first in the field, did he lead Icon to something new, did he achieve something. Does that help? Star   Mississippi  01:16, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, that makes perfect sense and is very helpful, thanks. I've passed along this guidance to the writers to help them get their heads in the right place. As you have said, it's less about what you would say about your CEO than what others have said and cited. Quite a different headspace for corporate communications types! [I used to be one, so I know.] Thanks for all your help on this! 65.27.89.211 (talk) 02:57, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
 * haha yes. Exactly. Think of what you'd have done and don't do that, even though that was perfect in that occasion. You/colleagues clearly understand how Wikipedia differs - thank you for taking the time to learn that. Stay warm! Star   Mississippi  03:08, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
