This is a very vague topic -- Is this going to include every German company? Is it German Companies operating in the US (in which case, may I remind everyone that this is not a US wikipedia)? Is it German Companies that make more than a certain amount of income a year? Perhaps it would be a good thing to make sure the goal is clear before creating an article? Or at least to let the rest of us know what the goal is? ;-) JHK

I think this should include all the multinational companies, if that is really a large list, it should be orking atleast outside the Europe etc.
The other option is to make a certain amount of yearly turnover as criteria.--Anupam Srivastava 14:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Does this list just include german companies instigated in germany, or in the U.S (etc) as well? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.183.104.226 (talk) 10:10, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Wouldn't this make more sense by just making some kind of a category ("German Companies") rather than attempt to list them here? This kind of page seems silly and/or impossible to scale SJFriedl (talk) 03:55, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Guidelines for Lists of companies by country - Feedback welcome

The question of List vs. Category has been discussed in various AFDs for these lists of companies by country, with all discussions ending in Keep/No Consensus. Seeing as these lists seem to be going nowhere I'm looking to establish, within WikiProject Companies, a set of guidelines that would address the concerns raised above. A draft has been put together here, and I appreciate constructive feedback from all interested Wikipedians! - Richc80 (talk) 21:38, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
