Sources

There are no sources stated in this article, please could someone cite some! --w2ch00

  • Also, the timeline section is apparently copied from the corporate site. I don't know about copyvio, but most of that stuff is of little importance, so it should be stripped to the essentials. Anyone? I might do it some day. Muad 04:37, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I was reading this and getting warm-fuzzy feelings about this company, which I expressed to my gf, she asked me why, so I read aloud, eg. "including the most advanced products within the area of insulin delivery systems"... And I instantly realized this is patently FALSE. The most advanced insulin delivery systems are electronic pumps, made by companies like Medtronic-Minimed, Disetronic, Cosmo. Novo-Nordisk does NOT make any pumps. In fact, they've recently regressed into Flexpens which are inferior to Penfills, in which they formerly specialized.

So this information is partisan spin, and FALSE, and the article needs to be updated to balance this. Kirez 16:19, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the text is taken from the company's website --130.225.201.89 12:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree with Kirez's stance on the article, it is my belief that pulmonary delivery systems are the future of diabetes delivery instruments, to which point I understand Novo Nordisk has strong development in.dojon 09:59, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think that Novo Nordisk are focussing upon pulmonary delivery as they have judged it to be a future market. But in the UK and the USA, at least, insulin pumps are the money-no-object treatment method of choice. I will try to NPOV this, mentioning pulmonary delivery and pumps.

Unite For Diabetes

This portion of the article makes it sound as if Novo is responsible for the creation of World Diabetes Day when in actuality they are one sponsor out of many and the corporation had little to do with it. A List of the corporate sponsors can be found here: http://www.worlddiabetesday.org/en/the-campaign/world-diabetes-day-partners I am new to wikipedia and unsure how to fix this. InfiniteThinking (talk) 22:37, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't particularly agree. The reference provided seems fine, and it does not claim any responsibility for 'creating' World Diabetes Day. In fact, it labels the campaign as that of the International Diabetes Federation, so I can not see what you are trying to sat. Taymaishu (talk) 05:18, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Upon re-read, Taymaishu is correct. I think that I am having bias problems as I know someone who was involved in International Diabetes Federation, and I will not work on this article any more. Thank you for your input. InfiniteThinking (talk) 00:14, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Translational Immunology

I have deleted a paragraph in the Translational Immunology section. The reason for doing this is that some statements in this paragraph are not yet scientifically validated and peer reviewed and we have not been able to confirm the existence of the lecture that is referred to as source. Additionally some of the statements could also be regarded as promotional content. Kasper Kofod 14:44, 5 March 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kofod (talk • contribs)
