Draft rejected - why exactly?
[edit]Dear Theroadislong (talk · contribs), thanks for your quick review. However, I cannot share your assessment that a promotional article would have been written here. What sections or sentences are written like this? Can you give details?
In my opinion, a promotional article would contain no statement about criticism of the company. Also such an article would certainly say nothing about the data leak/data theft. Even about lobbying, ie representation of interests or influencing, such an article would certainly give nothing.
This article is a translation from the de.wikipedia.org. There it has not been criticized, although many Wikipedians observe it.
When writing it, I made sure that neutrality was ensured. With the history section, I believe no one can advertise a company. The history section is based in part on two business-related sources. These are anniversary publications that show stages of corporate development. In some cases I referred on business reports of OTTO. But the section on history also refers to many sources that have nothing to do with EOS or OTTO. These are for example:
- Hamburger Abendblatt
- Die Welt
- Welt am Sonntag
- tw - Thema Wirtschaft
- Financial Times Deutschland
- Der Versandhausberater
- ONEtoONE
- El Confidencial
- Markt und Mittelstand
- Immobilien & Finanzierung – Der Langfristige Kredit
- Wirtschaftswoche
Other sections also use sources like:
- Bayerische Staatszeitung
- Vente d'Alphapay
- Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
- Mitteldeutsche Zeitung
- Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung
- Winsener Anzeiger
- Die Tageszeitung
- Behörden Spiegel
- Lebensmittel Zeitung
- Werben & Verkaufen
- Express
- Computer Magazin für die Praxis
- c't
- Donaukurier
- Die Zeit
- Der Standard
- Süddeutsche Zeitung
- Der Tagesspiegel
- Impulse
- Controlling & management review. Zeitschrift für Controlling & Management
- VerkehrsRundschau
- Tages-Anzeiger
- Bloomberg
I thought again: Are there any possibilities of reduction? I can see that in the section on business figures. I have shortened the section significantly. In my opinion this also underlines that no advertising has been done.

Promotional terms
[edit]Comment: Promotional terms include for example "The EOS Group has more than 55 operating companies with locations in 26 countries" "regarded as Germany’s largest debt collection provider" " quickly developed into one of the largest debt collecting companies in the Federal Republic of Germany" "EOS says that it covers 180 countries along with its partner organisations" " It dominates the financial services segment within the Group" Theroadislong (talk) 09:56, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
Dear Theroadislong (talk · contribs),
Thank you for your immediate feedback. I moved the discussion to the disc page. I think that suits better here.
- I changed the first sentence. Now there are no more numbers given.
- A source is given for the statement "regarded as Germany's largest debt collection provider".
- You're right: "quickly developed into one of the largest ...." I deleted the "quickly" and specified a source.
- The statement "It dominates the financial services segment within the Group" now has three sources from different years: Wirtschaftswoche, Handelsblatt and OTTO's latest annual report.
- "EOS says it covers 180 countries along with its partner organizations." I deleted this sentence without substitution.
Thanks for your hints. What do you think? Is that OK? Atomiccocktail (talk) 14:09, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Hello Theroadislong (talk · contribs), would you like to take another look at last changes? Is the draft ok now? Atomiccocktail (talk) 15:50, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
- You are being paid to edit, I am not, I have no further help to offer. Theroadislong (talk) 17:37, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello all. Here comes a proposal (paid edit) for an update.
1) The info box should be updated.
Klaus Engberding should be replaced there by Marwin Ramcke.[1]
2) The last sentence in the History section should now be:
On February 1, 2022, Marwin Ramcke took over as CEO.[1]
- ^ a b Chefwechsel bei Otto-Tochter Eos (Change of CEO at Otto subsidiary Eos). Börsen-Zeitung, January 13, 2022.
I would be happy if the proposal would be implemented. Many thanks in advance. Atomiccocktail (talk) 08:06, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
