Draft:Derix Glasstudios

  • Comment: - "Having 70 members, they emphasize training the next generation and providing independent artists a platform to hone their craft" is a statement more of opinion than fact based on the language
    - The 150th year is not necessary to mention unless something significant happened then? (and a citation would be needed for that event)
    - "Its prestige is attributed to its blend of tradition with contemporary designs and techniques." with no citation, this is opinion. GraziePrego (talk) 05:07, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
