These links are not necessary to the article and appear to be overly promotional in nature. The subject of the article is the Gate Group, therefore only one external link (besides references) is necessary -- to the official page of the Gate Group.

Please discuss your reasoning for including links to other brand sites here before adding them in again. Regards Simon-in-sagamihara (talk) 06:03, 9 April 2010 (UTC)Reply


Hi Simon,

I added these not out of promotion but out of detail. Gate Group is the parent company for those brands, so the article would be incomplete without the brands being mentioned. I assumed people would fuss if I didn't make them active links. We could link to the subsidiary wiki articles as an alternative or leave them as plain text.

Page name

edit

Currently the title of this page is 'Gate Group', but that is a misspelling. The correct name of the company is 'gategroup', one brand name with only lower case letters. Is it possible to change the page name in such a way that 'Gategroup' and 'Gate Group' redirect to 'gategroup'?

Recent developments

The facts in this article are correct but some of the more recent developments are missing. China's HNA Group has made a takeover offer for gategroup for example.

I would specifically suggest adding the takeover offer by HNA group: In April 2016, Chinese conglomerate HNA Group offered to buy gategroup for 1.4 billion Swiss francs.[1]

Notability

edit

Disclosure: I'm employed by gategroup.

A template has been added to this article questioning the notability of gategroup. Here are some secondary sources that have recently reported on gategroup: The Wall Street Journal The Financial Times Bloomberg The New York Times

This should be enough to establish the notability of gategroup so this template can be removed. Thank you.Philipp Eberhard (gategroup) (talk) 10:12, 21 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Done A quick Google news search would show that this company has plenty of hits. Removing the template. st170etalk 15:18, 21 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
