MP3 development date
The year 2000 marked a noteworthy success at Fraunhofer-Institut for Integrated Circuits (IIS): the development of MP3, the widely adopted method for coding and compressing of audio data.
Wasn't mp3 developed in 1991, as the mp3 page states? At least I remember using it prior to 2000. — Preceding

- MP3 page speaks about call for proposals' lasting to 1991, but MPx formats were standardised in 1992. There is no mentioning of Fraunhofer having something with the development (page of Fraunhofer claims different), though, only mentioning the l3enc encoder from 1994. Anyway, I "correct" the date stated above to 1992, hoping it's correct. — Preceding

Number of institutes
The list of "60 Fraunhofer Institutes" contains 66 or 67 entries; I changed the list heading to say "over sixty" and it was changed back by someone who claims some entries are only facilities of the 60 Institutes. If that's the case, the list title is false, since it refers to the entries on the list as Institutes (if some aren't, the heading is wrong; if all are, the count is). This requires more specific knowledge of which facilities on the list are not independent institutes... currently this list, in a sense the core of the specific practical info of the article, is somewhat incoherent as a result. The entries themselves are unclear and not really labeled; in my judgement further work and verification is required here.

Comment The Institutes are seperate entities, Fraunhofer society as a brand name does not really exist and the Wikipedia page should reflect the correct term — Preceding

Oppose. Usage could go either way, but as Fraunhofer is also used on its own, Fraunhofer Society is the more recognisable to English readers generally. The arguments based on what is correct are contrary to policy, but this probably needs to be put more clearly than it is currently.

Comment As a german I can't really tell which name is more common in english, but a redirecht would keep the more common english name Fraunhofer Society, while redirecting to Fraunhofer, which I assume is just as common and correct?

Comment in reply: There is already a redirect here from
Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, while
Fraunhofer is a disambiguation page. If the page were to be moved, yes a redirect should be left. But there seems to be neither justification nor support for the move. No change of vote.

Not exactly. The HTL is a subentity of the ISC, which is one of 72 Fraunhofer institutes. Of course, all institutes should have an english article as they have in German. The HTL should be mentioned in the (to be written) ISC article. Merging it with the main Fraunhofer lemma is obviously not a helpful idea. --

Hi, I am the author of the page
Fraunhofer-Center for High Temperature Materials and Design HTL. I was tasked with creating the English page for
Fraunhofer-Center for High Temperature Materials and Design HTL, since we do have a sizeable number of customers from English-speaking countries. Now, I do - to a certain extent - agree that a merge with the ISC (to be created) page would make sense. However, the problem is that I do not have the permission to create a page for the ISC and none of my colleagues at the ISC have the resources to do that either. Plus, our German page is a standalone anyway, which is why I would argue that no merge is necessary. But, alas, this is getting off-topic (I will start a discussion for
Fraunhofer-Center for High Temperature Materials and Design HTL on those issues). In any case, a merge with the main page Fraunhofer is definitely not helpful.

Since 2020, the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft has offered its own portal for awarding public contracts. A large part of the tenders of the individual institutes are processed via this.
This change is aimed to update the Fraunhofer Society's wikipedia to the latests status quo. Just recently the society established its own e-tender portal which is an important information about the company and may add value for many readers of this Wikipediapage.
Thank you for using the edit request procedure,
PBZM. For the future: you are expected to disclose your paid interest whenever you make any edit relating to your employer; that includes requests such as this.
Dear Justlettersandnumbers, I removed the text for which I do not have any independent or reliable sources other than Fraunhofer itself. However, for the rest I inserted 3 independent reliable sources. I hope this is to your satisfaction. Best regards
