[edit] Copyvio?

How was it determined that this article infringes copyrights? I honestly don't know much about the company/topic, but comparing the old article and the claimed source there doesn't seem to be way too many similarities(other than some of the factual data(which if it's accurate on the supposed copied page, it would be the same information if found elsewhere)).

D'Oh! The link on the page wasn't the source of the copyright-infringing material. All but the last two sentences of the article are blatantly from [1]. Whosasking 07:09, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Searching the databases for sources, I find only one assertion I can't readily verify:
  • Sportswear - Cerberus acquired in May, 2005 Rafaela Sportswear, a women's apparel business in New York City. The company also controls Fila, an Italian footwear designer.

[edit] Rafaella Apparel Group

This article says they own "Rafaella Apparel Group Inc.". No info on the acquisition date. -- Cyrius| 21:15, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chrysler

The sooner the New Chrysler Corporation can return to success and get free of this period of restructuring and forced austerity imposed by Cerberus; the better.JeepAssembler 18:44, 3 November 2007 (UTC)JeepAssemblerJeepAssembler 18:44, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Encyclopedic content must be verifiable, see: Wikipedia:Verifiability
The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. "Verifiability" in this context means that readers should be able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source. Editors should provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is challenged or is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed.
Wikipedia:Verifiability is one of Wikipedia's core content policies. The others are Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. Jointly, these policies determine the type and quality of material that is acceptable in Wikipedia articles. They should not be interpreted in isolation from one another, and editors should familiarize themselves with all three.

[edit] Fluffy

I have heard Cerberus called 'Fluffy' as a combination nickname/codename (investment bankers are not the most imaginative of people) and was wondering on its inclusion. Any comments? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mishabot (talkcontribs) 13:50, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

If you have good third-party verifiable source (see my comments above to: External links and References). Brokers and traders make up lots of nicknames for stocks and companies in the financial business. "WAMU" became so pervasive for Washington Mutual, because that was also its NASDAQ ticker symbol, "Mr. Softy" for MSFT, etc. But, in the grand scheme of things how important is that really in an encyclopedia? Doubt it means much outside the business and a few day-traders. IP4240207xx (talk) 20:40, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! Good point well made! (Mishabot (talk) 17:47, 29 May 2008 (UTC))
