[edit] Access

I think the discussion of what Merck is and the different companies that are identified as Merck is good, but I fear it has taken the place of a proper introduction. I think it should be incorporated into the article.

[edit] Opportunity

The figures relating to number of employees is completely incorrect and from a significant time ago. The Merck Group employs approximately 35,000 people (including Merck Serono). There is no mention of the Merck Consumer Health Care group, which is a Core sector of the Pharmaceutical division. The CHC group includes the company Seven Seas, which is globally known for its broad range of products to promote Health Naturally. In addition, the acquisition of Serono is completed.

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
