Recreation of article
Hi, thanks for message. Lots of problems you need to address. I deleted your article because
 * The article was a copyright violation. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.
 * Although you provided some independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines, they were just a list of bare urls at the end, so we cannot tell what fact each is supporting. Put your references in the the text following the fact each supports using . Then    at the end will automatically generate a numbered list
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include:  leading... provide a source of livelihood to thousands of people across... planted high quality tea bushes on the country lush green highlands. KTDA has consistently advised farmers to pluck the best ‘two leaves and a bud’ to create the world finest and distinctive tea. The two leaves and a bud are flush, tender, succulent and fresh, thus guaranteeing freshness in every cup. This is quality that KTDA is renowned for globally.&mdash; and so on
 * One external link to your main official site, unbolded

Bear in mind that any one can make valid edits to an article; it does not belong to your company, cheers Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:45, 24 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks for message. I suggest that you create in a sandbox first. I'll be happy to take a look if you want me to Jimfbleak - talk to me?  06:34, 23 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Please read what I put above. You posted copyrighted text again, now deleted, and still failed to give independent verifiable sources. It's never going to survive unless you make some effort instead of just copying stuff. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  13:33, 23 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Go ahead, I'll have a look tomorrow Jimfbleak - talk to me?  15:31, 20 April 2015 (UTC)


 * First, some obvious problems:
 * your article contains virtually no wikilinks, not even to Kenya or tea
 * although you have provided some refs, they are just dumped at the bottom, so we can't tell what fact each is supporting. Put your references in the the text following the fact each supports using . Then    at the end will automatically generate a numbered list
 * More comments when you've done that


 * I've tweaked a bit, I'll have another look when I have more time. Much of the text is still unreferenced. Why is the article written in US English when British English is normal in Kenya and the rest of East Africa? Jimfbleak - talk to me?  11:49, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I made this edit, mostly clean-up plus a couple of urls moved to external links. Much of the text is still unreferenced, but it otherwise seems uncontroversial. You could try moving it back to article space and see if the shortfall of sources becomes a problem Jimfbleak - talk to me?  10:38, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
