Additionally, now that Vow has released its first commercial product available for sale,[1] I'd like to ask that reference to "plans" to release products be adjusted.
2. Updating references to future plans

Finally, there's a sentence saying Vow was criticized for growing Zebra meat in a lab, but the citations provided just mention or quote Vow and do not seem to report on criticisms against Vow.[2][3]. A quick Google News search does not reveal any reputable news outlets with these criticisms either.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.
Currently, almost the entire page is lumped into an "Origins" section, even content about headquarters and products. It's difficult to articulate the changes I'd like to request, because it involves re-arranging everything. I put together a proposed draft where everything is re-arranged, and any actual additions to the current page are highlighted. I listed out individual "move XYZ sentence from here to here" type requests on the Talk page as well, depending on what's easier for editors to review. Pinging @AlphaBetaGamma: who responded to my last request. Dalia.adler (talk) 23:16, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks so much @AlphaBetaGamma:!! Is it ok if I restore the logo image in the infobox (see here)? I presume it got cut off by accident from copy/pasting from the draft (logos aren't allowed in drafts so I couldn't put it there), but I wanted to check in the off chance it was on purpose.
