Talk:Gentex (automotive supplier)

Total rewrite
This rewrite of the article should establish Gentex's notability, being a manufacturer of auto-dimming mirrors, as well as in developing photoelectric smoke detectors. In addition, the POV and the poor writing have been swept off the page. SchuminWeb (Talk) 14:50, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

– Both Gentex and Gentex Corporation are manufacturing companies known as "Gentex Corporation", which means the current article titles are ambiguous. I am also open to other suggestions for disambiguators. feminist (talk) 07:33, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Gentex → Gentex (automotive manufacturer)
 * Gentex Corporation → Gentex (military contractor)
 * Comment per WP:TWODABS, can you pick one? Axem Titanium (talk) 19:46, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Probably yes, but either one of these two articles would require a disambiguator. feminist (talk) 08:32, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, actually no, TWODABS won't work because Gentex (standard) exists. Thus, a disambiguation page will be involved in any case. feminist (talk) 08:39, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Gentex (automotive manufacturer) → Gentex (automotive supplier) – Despite the title being "automotive" and not "automobile," the current title implies, at least at first glance, that Gentex is an automaker and not a maker of components. I believe "supplier" is clearer and aligns with typical usage in the industry. Sable232 (talk) 01:15, 21 May 2024 (UTC) The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it.
