Spelling

[edit]

This article had been using "Orgreen" which I believe is a mis-spelling of a Danish proper noun. Ø is a distinct letter in Danish, is not "O with a diacritic" and simply substituting O is not generally acceptable. As evidence, I can point to this company's logomark and most of the sites linked to in the article.

This may be a bit controversial as this company's US partner is "Orgreen Goldsmith LLC"[1] and their North American marketing spells this with an O. However, their UK marketing retains the Danish spelling and this is an international company.

Orgreen OpticsØrgreen Optics – This is a Danish proper noun, and should not be respelled. The company's logomark clearly spells this with with Ø, as do all available sources about the surname of the company's founder. One complication is the North American partner does in fact respell this with an O and uses this spelling in their marketing[1], and for this reason I have held off on making the rename myself. WP:DIVIDEDUSE Ørgreen does appear the be the predominant usage I can find, though. Larry (talk) 23:44, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
