Text and/or other creative content from 2009 Graff Diamonds robbery was copied or moved into Graff Diamonds with this edit on 16 May 2018. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Paragon (diamond)

I have already merged the article on the Paragon diamond to this article, but it was undone without clear explanation. The diamond isn't independently notable, as there isn't significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. Fences&Windows 23:41, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose There is adequate coverage of the diamond in numerous sources, as one would expect for a gem of such distinction. The jewellers are just the current owners and it is not associated exclusively with them as it has had other owners and wearers. And we have much more to say about the jewellers as a business.

Rectifying citation issue on page

Hello Wiki Editors,

My name is Guy - I work for Graff's marketing team.

Can you please kindly help me address the issue relating to a citation concern shown on Graff's wiki entry? I have listed some third party sources for the 'sourcing' text below:

Sourcing:

Graff Diamonds adheres to the Kimberley process and avoids conflict diamonds. The majority of its diamonds bear laser engravings that allow their origin to be traced.

I have many third party sources to improve neutrality of the remaining sections - if this is something which can be resolved?

Many thanks,

Guy — Preceding unsigned comment added by PaleFireUK84 (talk • contribs) 13:13, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hi Fellow WikiEditors,

We have some additional information I was wondering if this could be verified and added to the "Sourcing" section of the article:

Graff’s cutting and polishing is carried out in Johannesburg by South African Diamond Corporation (Safdico). This is the first stop for rough diamonds, where 300 employees cut and polish them. Graff employs 700 people worldwide to aid the process from rough stone to final piece of jewellery.

Relevant reference source for this - ^[1]

Smailser (talk) 09:52, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reply 22-AUG-2018

Edit request implemented Safdico is a division of Graff Diamonds.^[2] Thus Graff's choice of contractor to use for various points of production is a routine business decision shared by thousands of businesses everyday in the course of retail practice (and thus is arguable whether it is worth mentioning.) If this routine business decision were to be mentioned, the relationship between Graff and Safdico at least ought to be clearer (e.g., "Graff’s cutting and polishing is carried out in Johannesburg by South African Diamond Corporation, a division of Graff.") spintendo 11:55, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
