[edit] Reorganising?
Instead of having an article for every country, I suggest that the "country articles" should be reorganised in a history section.

- I kind of like the idea of having at least a small section with specific info for each country. That does not exclude a history section, though. Thue | talk 20:29, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] France
From what I know, the French Netto isn't part of the Danish Netto-chain. I don't know how the page should be organized to reflect this, though. (By the way, there seems to be another chain called Netto in Germany, de:Netto (Marken-Discount)) Väsk 11:45, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
- You're right, Netto in France has nothing to do with the Danish owned Netto. I've edited the page to reflect this.--A.szczep 08:15, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Store Numbers
Looking at the number of stores on the article and the number on the Netto UK Site. There are a few differences.
Not sure which is most accurate though, so I won't edit the numbers on here.
To view the details on the Netto site click the above link, and click About Netto in the bottom right corner.

- Since Netto is a Danish store, I assume that the numbers on the Danish page are the most updated, and that the other country pages are translated from it. Thue | talk 07:12, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Arson
The Keighley store was destroyed by arson as well, in about 1998. Of course, before it burnt down baked beans were 7p. After it burnt down, they went up to 10p because they were cooked.
lol is that a joke or is it serious? if joking its funny
[edit] Request for info review
I've just had a look at this selection and I don't think it should belong in this article. This is the section
The cause has not yet been identified but it is believed to have been started by a faulty heater. The fire broke out at around 4am and firefighters from around the area were called to battle the flames. The fire was not completely put out until about 12pm. It is not yet known whether the building will be demolished and rebuilt. Netto is famously associated with good value but there is a definite negative connotation linked to the supermarket chain associated with cheapness, being mainly a food shop for the lower working class. It is becoming very popular with schoolchildren who often claim that a fellow classmate shops there, as to insult the receiver (due to Netto being known for its cheapness).
My view is that it is unescessary information and the negative connotation section is an indirect attack at Netto. I personally have never got that impression myself or heard those connotations and they do not need to be in this article surely? The schoolchild quote is again not needed in the article. This is an encyclopedia not a local news paper!!
Please let me know your views because I am tempted to remove it --Rboxer 11:05, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
No responses so I gather we are in agreement. If not please post a comment on my discussion page thanks! --Rboxer 11:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
