Talk:Volkswagen advertising

About the tag "lead needs to be rewritten"

Someone has tagged this article with 'the lead needs to be rewritten." I have to agree, but would go further and argue that the entire article needs to be rewritten.

The article title, "Volkswagon advertising" raises an expectation that the article will cover Volkswagon advertising generally. However, the article is only concerned with the "Think Small" campaign and its variations of the late 1950s and 60s. But, there is already an article dedicated to the Think Small campaign so this article merely duplicates ideas already canvassed elsewhere. The article also includes a lot of material on advertising guru, William Bernbach - but there is an article dedicated to him as well.

If this article cannot focus on more general themes in relation to Volkswagon's advertising over many years, then it is a good candidate for a merge with Think Small BronHiggs (talk) 01:43, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

Fahrvergnügen not standard German???

The article claims "The term itself is not standard German but a neologism". On what sources is this claim based that Fahrvergnügen is not standard German? Any compound noun that is put together and is commonly understood is by any means standard German, because it follows the rules of standard German, also called German grammar. Anything that is not standard German would sound odd to a native German speaker, Fahrvergnügen doesn't sound odd. -92.72.120.189 (talk) 05:34, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

What Advertising Styles are Included?

The lead is barebones and mentions multiple ad styles being used by Volkswagen, but then stops. What other styles can be discussed? Sshockley1 (talk) 08:30, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
