[edit] Deletion discussion

I don't care to get into an edit war here, but I still oppose this deletion. This article does need some cleanup (I see "King Hill Residents" being used as a reference as a glaring example), but the last reference's title alone, which seems legit at face value, makes the deleted material plausible enough to want a solid historical reference available before we delete this information. The URL given by the deleter does not work, and I spent time poking around that general page and found information about this site - but nothing refuting the deleted information. This information has withstood numerous editors, some of them experienced and making good contributions to this article. I request a discussion here, and hopefully some third opinions, to decide if we should keep this material or not. I have left a message on the deleter's talkpage inviting him/her to give their opinion. Tanthalas39 (talk) 05:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm not fully versed in Wikipedia editing, I am one of the "Kings Mills Residents" making the said reference which was deleted for some strange reason. I rent space in the Peter Cartridge Factory and I live 1/4 mile from the place in Kings Mills. I have resources of residents that live here - including some that worked in the building. I also personally know Mr. Schiffer and the the KMCP Site Manager "Bud". I have content to contribute but with unfamiliarity of this system, I could used some help. Also, the Peters Factory was not the business that destroyed in 1890 - it was the King Powder Company, which afterwards moved to the north short of the Little Miami to prevent further incident because of the railroad company. The Peters factory developed later. These businesses came after the civil war.Daniel Bingamon (talk) 04:05, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
