Comment: Hello S0091, thanks for having a look at the draft. I would say though that the source coverage is sufficient to meet WP:NCORP. The article cites Stuttgarter Zeitung, Wirtschaftswoche, and Arkansas Business. These sources are all secondary, may be deemed independent and reliable, and they all discuss the subject in significant detail. I would also like to ask, what do you reckon needs improving for the article to meet WP:NPOV? --Erika Mayer (talk) 09:17, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
