[edit] Inconsistent Statistic
The unemployment statistic in the table at the beginning of the article and the statistic in the "National accounts" part of the article are conflicting. The table reads the unemployment rate as 4.5% and at the end of the article the rate is listed at 3.9%. Britney-Boy 07:14, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:DanishKroners.jpg
Image:DanishKroners.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Denmark and the euro
There's more on Denmark and the euro on the Eurozone page than here. Referendum? Peg? Debate on joining?

[edit] What is "official unemployment"?
The article says "During the governments of Poul Nyrup Rasmussen, there was a drastic fall in official unemployment (...)". What is official unemployment, and what would it be if it was not official? If there is a good reason to distinguish between official and else, it would be nice to have a link to an article explaining that.

[edit] Forbes best country for business
Maybe it's worth including somewhere that on Forbes' list Denmark ranked as the best country for business in 2008 and 2009? http://www.forbes.com/lists/2009/6/bizcountries09-best-countries-for-business_Denmark_CHI001.htmlJoakimLemche (talk) 07:35, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
[edit] POV and accuracy tag added to Employment section
I added a POV and accuracy tag to the Employment section because the last paragraph:
- Denmark also engages in programs where they are able to hide unemployment. For example, in 2006 there were 117,600 people who were put away in so-called "arbejdsmarkedspolitiske foranstaltninger" or "labor market political activities".
is cited using a blog as the source, which violates WP:RS. If a reliable source isn't found, this paragraph should be deleted. Pristino (talk) 10:29, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- First of all the expression "hide unemployment" is NPOV, as "arbejdsmarkedspolitiske foranstaltninger" are parts of an active Danish employment policy, and therefore not a way to fake unemploymentrates. The 117,600 people who are supposed to be hidden referes to the 4th quarter of 2005, which is stated in a Statistics Denmark report via this link. --Sabbe (talk) 08:27, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
