==Dear Colchicum==
Dear Colchicum,
On 19 March 2007 at 15:48 an entry is shown under your name in the history log. You have expressed concern that the "Lean Construction" article on wikipedia does not satisfy the notability guideline or one of the following guidelines for inclusion on Wikipedia: Biographies, Books, Companies, Fiction, Music, Neologisms, Numbers, Web content, or several proposals for new guidelines.

The Lean Construction research and practitioner community has been working on this topic since 1992 or so. There are numerous publications, in peer-reviewed journals and technical magazines, regarding this topic. The philosophy of Lean Construction is similar, but not identical, to the Toyota Production System, which has a wikipedia entry.

If your concern is with the companies we have listed, this has been only done to establish the widespread adoption of the principles and practice of Lean Construction. This is not meant as an advertisement for the companies. Please indicate whether this is still your concern ([[User:Tabdelhamid|Tabdelhamid]] 11:02, 20 March 2007 (UTC))
:Ok, I am not concerned anymore. [[User:Colchicum|Colchicum]] 13:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

:Would you remove the note about the notability guideline concern?[[User:Tabdelhamid|Tabdelhamid]] 15:22, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

: Veinor, Are your concerns about Wikifying satisfied? [[User:Tabdelhamid|Tabdelhamid]] 18:33, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Is there a reason why the '4-hour house' is excluded from this page ? [[User:Facius|Facius]] 12:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

:Facius, if this is a wikipedia reference we can add it. The 4-hour house primarly embodies the lean maxim of off-site fabrication and JIT to facilitate site work flow.[[User:Tabdelhamid|Tabdelhamid]] 21:22, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I have added the categories that Lean Construction should be under. I removed the warning regarding lack of categorization[[User:Tabdelhamid|Tabdelhamid]] 02:36, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

:Korny, I am not sure why you made the changes you did. The information contained on the page is necessary because it reflects the evolving and growing nature of Lean Construction. You are welcome to join the Lean Construction community next year for our conference in Salford, Britan. Visit iglc.net to learn more.

== Integrated Lean Project Delivery ==

The article's section on Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) could do with better references, although it was recently expanded slightly. Additional sources to consider include:

* Alan Mossman (2009) who answers the question [http://www.thechangebusiness.co.uk/TCB/Integrated_Project_Delivery_files/What-is-Integrated-Project-Delivery3.pdf What-is-Integrated-Project-Delivery?], a two-page pdf (2009)
* [http://www.acecmn.org/contents/file/194 INTEGRATED PROJECT DELIVERY: COLLABORATION THROUGH NEW CONTRACT FORMS], by Patrick J. O’Connor, 11-page pdf (2009)

I've updated the Integrated Lean Project Delivery (ILPD) secion to include references about the Boldt Group's trademark (TM). Addition sources which might be relevant include:
* Quotes from [http://www.constructech.com/news/articles/article.aspx?article_id=8832 Pat Loughrin, vice president of healthcare for Northern Operations at Boldt], in ''Constructech'' magazine.

Please add your other suggested sources here if you like. [[User:Wcrosbie|wcrosbie]] ([[User talk:Wcrosbie|talk]]), Melbourne, Australia 10:23, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

: I'm going to revise this section using more general terms (i.e. ones that are not trademarked). Please leave a note here if you have any concerns. [[User:Wcrosbie|wcrosbie]] ([[User talk:Wcrosbie|talk]]), Melbourne, Australia 09:29, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

== External links ==

The following links have been removed. Please don't reinstate them in the External links section because that's not where they belong:

== Not comprehensible ==

This article reads like advertising, dropping buzzwords by the thousand, extolling the virtues of this system, but never really explaining what it is or how it differs to non-lean construction. "What is lean construction?" is a question that ought to be answered in the first paragraph, not three sections down; and even there, no clear explanation is given.
I actually came here to learn about the Last Planner System, but the explanation is woefully lacking. It doesn't even mention who the last planner is, or why s/he is last.
