Aspioti-ELKA edit
- ... that in business for over a century, Aspioti-ELKA was the oldest company of its kind in Greece when it folded in 1997?

New enough and long enough.No pictures so no copyright issues to check on that. Article reads as neutral enough to me and as it is no longer in operation, less concerned about it reading like an advertisement.
Unsourced paragraph marked with fact tag needs fixing.- Hook is supported by article and source: "In business for over a century, Aspioti-ELKA was the oldest company of its kind in Greece when it folded in 1997" is article text supporting hook. Translation says "The looting suffered by the graphic arts company - the oldest of its kind in the country - Aspiotis - ELKA and led the way into bankruptcy from the French owner Jean-Jacques Lesouer, exemplifies the complete impunity and the scandalous tolerance enjoyed by all kinds ... entrepreneurs who reach the point of breaking the law undisturbed"[1] Removed printing from hook as the article and source do not say that.
I've made some very minor changes to make the formatting correct, but hook should now be properly formatted. Looking at translated text, don't think there is plagiarism but some one more familiar with it might want to do a check if they have concerns. Otherwise, not seeing any cause for concerns. Topic would pass WP:GNG. Hook is probably as interesting as you're going to get with the text to work with. --LauraHale (talk) 02:02, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
Needs cite for unreferenced paragraph. --LauraHale (talk) 02:02, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
Done diff. Thank you very much for a record-fast review. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 02:33, 14 April 2012 (UTC)- Actually this citation in English specifically mentions that Aspioti-ELKA was one of the largest employers in the "printing and publishing" business. So I took the liberty of reinstating the "Printing" wikilink. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 02:39, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
Good to go. --LauraHale (talk) 02:42, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- Wow. That was fast! :) Thank you very much. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 02:44, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- Alternate:... that on the day the factory of Aspioti-ELKA in Corfu obtained permission to move its equipment to Athens, it got bombed?

Alt1 is also good to go. Hook properly formatted. Fact appears in the article, supported by a reference, with reference [2] supporting fact. --LauraHale (talk) 18:29, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
