Hi Mcneillg. I think the mention of Kraft on the Banbury page is justified as they are the biggest employer in Banbury and have been for a good many years. However this doesn't mean we should mention every single company that happens to be based in Banbury, especially not in the introduction.

If you still think it should be included, a better way (IMHO) might be to start off a section "Companies based in Banbury" and put it there instead. This is already the case in some other articles about towns and cities - see Nottingham, for example. MFlet1 12:56, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

OK, I may do this, but I would need some help if anyone is up for that! Thanks for prompt response and for the great work on the Banbury page!

I'm starting to fix it up.Wipsenade (talk)

Re: the "refs. needed" tag. It is appropriate to remove this type of tag when you have provided the refs. Tags like "refs. needed", "cleanup", "wikify", etc. do not require admin. assistence to be removed. Please note that a tag like this that has been removed before the requested work has been done will likely be replaced. You will find that many articles live with tags for a long time. Anyway, although I removed the tag stating that the article doesn't have refs., there are still a lot of factual statements that are not sourced. These are still important, particularly for a biographies of living persons. Cheers. --Evb-wiki 14:47, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
