1935:
The article should be primarily about the history of the surviving company, even though it may have assumed a predecessor's name (for example the article on Bank of
America is primarily about Nations Bank with references and links to an article about the legacy BankAmerica). Larger corporations that have wholly owned subsidiaries can be represented by one or more articles; for instance, such subsidiaries might each warrant separate articles, but they should be clearly connected to the parent company. Each article should have a section discussing the company's business model, which is intimately tied to how a company is put together and is one of the major factors usually shaping a company's history. It is not uncommon for the business model to change over time, but major changes can entail a change to the corporate identity. For publicly-held companies, a long term stock history (ideally a total shareholder return line including dividends), possibly shown relative to the industry benchmark appropriate to the company's line of business, would not be out of place. Management philosophy, vision, and values are also a major element of corporations and their behaviour which often go under-reported during mergers and acquisitions and can provide insight into what actually happened as opposed to what the corporate partners have publicly described as having happened. Lists in an article of current and former directors and executives of a company are desirable. A corporate governance section may be ideally suited to group this information.

GM workers $ 200/hour (with perks, retirement, etc.) it would normally be "good" business to transfer some/most of these jobs elsewhere where costs might be less. That is, company management that moves these jobs would normally be considered "prudent" rather than "morally defective." It is financially imprudent to overpay for goods or services. A company that does that consistently is going to become bankrupt, as indeed, GM did.

612:). So we don't really have historical "encyclopedia" guidelines to set the path here, instead the wikipedia community has to do this itself. Interestingly, if one tracks back through the history of the larger company articles, a lot of the development seems to have occurred essentially due to an "arms war" between supports and critics of the companies.

I see on this page a proposal to establish guidelines, which makes me think that neither project has actually established guidelines. Perhaps interested parties could comment on the discussion at

An article should be about a company and its predecessors, the names of which may have changed due to mergers, acquisitions, de-mergers, legal challenges, etc. For public companies in the United States, the authoritative reference for such changes is the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC).

I'd like to move on getting these guidelines "published". I think the first step would be to do a pilot and rearrange an article that none of us have ever edited before, and one that doesn't appear to have a lot of traffic and update the article in accordance with the proposed structural guidelines.

Just noticed "job losses" above. While this may be considered "social harm" it sounds pov in a business environment. Normally a company decreases jobs to ensure that the company turn a profit. It may have occurred from mismanagement, or, more likely, from the market changing. In a real world, paying

I've been looking into the issue of content guidelines for company articles. One of the "problems" is that broadbased traditional encyclopedias, such as

The review reveals no "standard" approach to companies articles apart from the commonly used company template, however a range of themes do arise, though actually headings differ. I've summarised these below, with examples of headings used in various Knowledge articles.

Previous material in this section moved to Talk-page The primary template in use on individual company articles is {{Infobox company}}, with 44,620 uses as of Sepember 10, 2012. The template R from predecessor company name was created in May 2013.

Well, in my view company articles in Knowledge are haphazardly written and structured at present, so just because they don't have something doesn't mean they shouldn't. Clearly the information is available in RS sources, so if someone really

should the magnitude used in infobox be consistent across all field of financial information? i.e., if revenues are US$ 5.2 Billion, should we show net income as US$ 0.1 Billion, or US$ 101.3 Million? I'd vote for the former.

I don't think we need to bother with Sandboxing, since the suggested structure isn't outside any WP policies. Then based on feedback of the new article layout, we can pursue publishing these guidelines for this project.

The BBB is vastly overrated. Tends to be anti-small business, anti-out of area businesses and sometimes anti-fraud, but the state is much more active nowdays in pursuing fraud in US, and, anyway, is US-centric.

When citing from the web a company's report, we face two alternatives for the date field: the reporting period discussed by the report, or the date of the publication of the report. For example, in the case of

To get some perspective on what's been happening on Knowledge, I've reviewed a range of articles, trying to look at a range of company types and home countries. Some of the WP articles reviewed include -

Ideally someone could collate the data, put it in a copyright free graph and then update it regularly :). Since I doubt that's going to happen, an external link to Stock History sounds appropriate. --

Likewise: "Corporate Social Responsibility: philanthropy, environment" should also be the section to include "corporate irresponsibility", such as harm to the environment, job losses, etc.

Just looking around for support for a deleted section which contained "competitors" (referenced). Finally managed to find this discussion (not easy, BTW). So, yes, an upgrade is long overdue!

I might propose that companies do not have a nationality, but rather have a headquarters location and a distribution of revenue, offices, employees acrosss 1 or more countries.
