• ... that DeeDo ranked second behind a Minute Maid brand in 2015, taking up 16.8% of Thailand's economy juice sector? Source: Jitpleecheep, Pitsinee (2015-04-23). "Ichitan turns on the juice with relaunch of Bireley's". Bangkok Post. Archived from the original on 2024-02-18. Retrieved 2024-02-18.

  The article notes: "Coca-Cola's Minute Maid Pulpy is the market leader in the economy juice segment with a 26% share, followed by DeeDo with 16.8% and Kato with 13.8%."

Created by Cunard (talk). Self-nominated at 09:01, 18 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/DeeDo; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• @Cunard: Good article. Earwig's is clean, and QPQ is done. Because most of the sources are in Thai which I can't read, I can't verify them. But with the hook, the hook suggests to me that DeeDo takes 26% market share, whereas the source says it has 16.8% market share. The article also says this, Taking 26% of the economy juice sector, Foodstar's DeeDo fruit juice brand ranked second behind the Minute Maid. I'm also not sure if the hook is that interesting. —Panamitsu (talk) 04:52, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
  • Panamitsu (talk · contribs), thank you for catching that mistake. I've fixed this in the article and in the hook. Here are some alternative hooks:
    1. ALT1: ... that DeeDo in 2015 ranked second behind a Coca-Cola brand in Thailand's economy juice sector?
    2. ALT2: ... that DeeDo secured a license to feature the manga series Doraemon on its products?
    3. ALT3: ... that DeeDo upgraded its machinery to assemble 600 fruit juice bottles per minute up from 200?

    • @Cunard: Yes that looks much better. ALT1 is good, ALT2 is very interesting and will assume in good faith as I can't read Thai. ALT3 looks good, but can't verify as I'm not Thai. Will approve, thanks. —Panamitsu (talk) 09:30, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
      • Thank you! Cunard (talk) 09:40, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
    • Comment: "... to feature the manga series Doraemon on its products" sounds a bit misleading, as to me at least it conjures the image of printing the entire comics on the packaging, when actually it's just the characters. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:58, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
      • Paul_012 (talk · contribs), thank you for catching this. Here is an alternative:

        ALT2b: "... that DeeDo secured a license to feature characters from the manga series Doraemon on its products?" Cunard (talk) 10:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

        • Thanks. It's a minor modification that should remain covered by Panamitsu's check, but I'll put another mark here just to make it clear. --Paul_012 (talk) 20:00, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Terminology

Are "economy" and "super-economy" internationally recognised terms for market segmentation? Outside of car sales, that is. If not, they'll need to be explained, because right now I don't think it's very clear to the reader that the brand mainly operates in the lower-priced market. --Paul_012 (talk) 10:09, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

I agree that the "economy" and "super-economy" terms are not internationally recognised terms for market segmentation. I've used your wording to explain those terms to the reader. Thank you, Paul 012 (talk · contribs)! Cunard (talk) 10:24, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

No Thai interwiki?

Huh. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:17, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Piotrus (talk · contribs), that is correct. I've created five articles in the Thai topic area in the last few months and only one had a corresponding Thai Wikipedia article (see wikidata:Q13022297). Cunard (talk) 09:57, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
