Hello,
I'm working for Fielmann and would like to offer another suggestion for the article. As it's stated above the article, the current version seems to lack objectivity. Therefore, I worked out a new version of the history part which hopefully has a more neutral tone. I'm aware that I as an employee of the company cannot guarantee complete neutrality on this subject – but maybe we can use this as a base for a general improvement of the overall article quality:

"
The company was founded in 1972 by [[Günther Fielmann]], who opened the first store in [[Cuxhaven]]. At that time, the German health insurance system only provided a limited number of spectacle frames. In 1981, Fielmann negotiated an agreement with the [[Esens, Lower Saxony|Esens]] statutory health insurance company which allowed a larger selection of frames to be added to the portfolio for patients covered by the insurance. This was a significant change in the German optical market.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nwzonline.de/wirtschaft/in-esens-blickte-fielmann-durch_a_1,0,3312825785.html|title=In Esens blickte Fielmann durch (In Esens Fielmann looked through)|first=Rolf|last=Seelheim|publisher=Nordwest-Zeitung|language=German|date=17 September 2009}}</ref>

Revision as of 10:56, 4 November 2020

Orphaned references in Fielmann

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Fielmann's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "AR2015":

  • From Rheinmetall: "Annual Report 2015" (PDF). Rheinmetall. Retrieved 17 March 2016.
  • From Deutsche Börse: "Annual Financial Report 2015" (PDF). Deutsche Börse. Retrieved 19 April 2016.
  • From Gerresheimer: "Annual Report 2015" (PDF). Gerresheimer. Retrieved 11 February 2016.

  • From Hannover Re: "Annual Report 2015" (PDF). Hannover Re. Retrieved 10 March 2016.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 16:16, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
