message: :Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

message: Shouldn’t the information about the German supervisory board be merged with the article on Aktiengesellschaft?  The article about Aktiengesellschaft implies that it is exactly the same corporate entity as a Public Limited Company, PLC in the UK or US.  It rather simplistically translates Aktiengesellschaft as a company owned by share holders whose policies are decided on purely by shareholders.  But, in actual fact, because of the supervisory board Aktiengesellshchaft are actually owned, well company policy is decided at any rate, by stakeholders rather than just shareholders through their voting powers at the Annual General Meeting or EGM. So, the article is being quite misleading without this key piece of information.
:Shareholders have a voting majority in the Aufsichtsrat. Both sides have the same member amount. But the president of the Aufsichtsrat has a double valued vote, when there is no majority in the first vote round. Liproqq (talk) 17:14, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

message: Your article confuses a little bit about the legal situation from companies under 'AG' - law:
The AG in switerzland is very very close to the GmbH in Germany, where as 
the 'GmbH' in switzerland is comparable (if not to say similar) to germans 'AG'.
This is an important detail to know for.

message: This article refers to
: "a corporation limited by share ownership".
When the word "limited" is used in this context, I usually understand it to refer to limitations on the liability of share owners.  It that is what is meant, that ought to be stated here, and if it is not, then the article is unclear.  Besides AG, there is also GmbH, meaning Geselschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, i.e. "company with limited liability.  If AG differs in meaning from GmbH, then what is the nature of the "limitations", if any, implied by "AG"? Michael Hardy (talk) 14:54, 16 September 2016 (UTC)
