User:Ksnow has indicated that the article may not be relevant. I would tend to disagree. This plant is the only assembly point for the Ford Focus in North America. The Focus has previously been the best selling car in the world. It is a large facility, with a payroll of 3114 people according to Ford's website. It has been mentioned in newspaper articles in the Detroit News. http://detnews.com/specialreports/2004/plants/carplants.htm

Furthermore, if this article is not relevant, then none of the articles on auto assembly plants on wikipedia should be around. There are dozens if not hundreds of articles on this subject. See List of Ford factories and List of GM factories as an example. If you can provide a compelling reason why this article should not exist, please do so. Until then, I am removing the relevance tag from the article.

Fair use rationale for Image:2006focusplant.jpg

Image:2006focusplant.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

From above: Temporary layoffs while they retool for the Ford Ranger and later Bronco. Focus production going to China. C-max fate unknown. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.88.184.114 (talk) 02:52, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
