Improving the Accuride article
I just noticed your comments on the Talk:Accuride_International page, and have used them to improve the article. One thing: you mention that Accuride has 1500 employees, citing the Accuride Web site, but I don't see that figure anywhere on the site, so for now I'm using the Hoover's figure of 2000 employees. Can you provide better documenation of the headcount? Thanks, --Macrakis (talk) 21:12, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Re: Improving the Accuride Page
Hi,

Forgive me if I am responding incorrectly. I haven't posted often enough to remember all the rules and guidelines. Thanks for your revisions to the page. I'm not sure where the Hoover's info came from, however in checking with our HR director, he confirmed our worldwide staff is about 2,000 these days. Other than his confirmation, I do not have anything else to confirm staff count. That was my concern in that I could not locate any reference to cite for that particular point. However if Hoovers is an acceptable source, that's fine.

Regards,
