Your edits to D'Ieteren
Hey there, I noticed that you keep on adding certain types of content back into the D'Ieteren that reads like marketing material for the company. I appreciate your willingness to help the project, but according to Wikipedia policy, specifically WP:PROMOTION, content must be written in an "objective and unbiased" style. Sentences like: "In existence since 1805, and across family generations, D’Ieteren seeks growth and value creation by pursuing a strategy on the long term for its businesses and actively encouraging and supporting them to develop their position in their industry or in their geographies. The group has currently three activities articulated around strong brands"

simply are not encyclopedic. A better way to write it would be: "D'Ieteren was founded in 1805 as a family-run company that has grown into a conglomerate that serves three different industries through three distinct brands."

I'm not sure if this is factually accurate or not, I'm not familiar with the company, but this is the style of writing that Wikipedia encourages. Additionally, you will have to include sources into your statements from secondary sources that back up your statements. I've reverted your contributions for the time being, but any additions that follow the above guidelines should stick. Please let me know if you have any questions! --haha169 (talk) 12:09, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
