This appears to be part of an emerging linkfarm nest connected with the speedied Alexi Marmot Associates created by User:Oseland. I'm not insisting on outright deletion, maybe it is salvageable. Please also review the the self-referencing Post occupancy evaluation by the same user. - NVO (talk) 20:51, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Please advise on how this article can be salvaged. Workplace Consulting is a recognised discipline within the UK and an omission from Wikipedia. Oseland (talk) 21:16, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have teaken the refreences out to Alexi Marmot Associates on the Workplace consulting and Post occupancy evaluation articles. As above POE is a clear omission from Wikipedia. Please delete the offending lines rather than the articles. I have seen articles on other archtectural practices so assumed some reference was okay. Oseland (talk) 21:24, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep The topic is evidently notable and even the nominator considers that it may be salvaged. Colonel Warden (talk) 00:09, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep = The article could do with some cleanup, but is relatively sound and referenced. Flopsy Mopsy and Cottonmouth (talk) 10:20, 3 December 2008 (UTC)Delete = After further consideration (and looking through the walled garden) I've determined that the useful information in this article is covered - and covered better - in the article on facility management.

- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Delete. This appears to be a part of a walled garden of articles designed to promote consulting businesses; workplace strategies seems to be another. The text seems to belabor the obvious in prose that's heavy with buzzwords and glittering generalities, without adding concrete information: Workplace Consulting is the process of understanding the current and future requirements of an organisation, through consultation and analysis, in order to introduce a new workstyle or create a new workplace. In particular, workplace consultants may be engaged when an organisation is considering implementing "new ways of working", sometimes referred to as flexible or agile working. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 18:17, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
