Untitled[edit]

This article was created to provide at least some basic information on an important person in Belgian (and European) industry. Thomas Leysen is the CEO of Umicore, which is one of the largest metal-processing companies in the world. Pvosta 19:29, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You need to assert that in the article and also provide references. Hatch68 19:32, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help and suggestion. Thomas Leysen is a member of the European Round Table of Industrialists. Pvosta 19:46, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's not the type of reference we mean. In this case, reliable sources need to have written articles where the subject is Leysen. He should have articles in newspapers, business magazines and so forth, could you provide some? ColourBurst 20:25, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
