message: Is there any information on the inspiration for the Umbrella corporation name and logo? I'm thinking Citigroup, since they are the largest company in the world, and have an umbrella logo as well. 165.230.46.150 17:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Why is the location in the infobox set as America? It's pretty clearly referenced that there are branches across the globe and it was founded by a European?
It is absolutely clear that Umbrella is in Europe, not in the U.K. but in Europe, so please, leave your American patriotism for a while and admit that Umbrella is supposted to be in our continent.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.54.29.118 (talk) 12:36, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Location

message: Excuse me, I am confused. Where exactly did the Umbrella Corporation originate from. I know it is a world-wide corporation. I just don't think it was in France. Perhaps I am wrong as I might very well be. Nevertheless, my understanding was that it was founded in the Americas...more specifically in the United States. After all, isn't that why "Racoon City" was founded. I can only think of a few possibilities:
1) It is a corporation originally headquartered in the United States in the founded location of Racoon City.
2) It is a corporation originally headquartered in the United States founded in another location other than Racoon City.
3) It is a corporation originally headquartered in Europe. (Where exactly would it have originated from? From France? I don't recall seeing France in the picture. Please remind me.)
4) It is a corporation originally headquartered in another location not mentioned above.
I know there are other facilities in other diverse location (Arklay Mountains, etc.) I want to
know the corporations point of origin. Any help would be greatly appreciated! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.213.170.39 (talk) 23:22, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  No mention of Umbrella's history as it appears in the films. 

message: I read the article and talk and see problems but it was tagged AfD. The reasoning is no Google search hits and no 3rd party verification, although apparently at least one was found, along with other problems (see: #Umbrella Corporation ). I have seen that certain violations have been dealt with (image violations, POV, etc...) but do feel the title should be, Umbrella Corporation (Fictional game), as I dislike getting such unwarranted hits on a search result. This would also deal with the above mentioned statement concerning the use of "fictional" at every turn. This is not the main problem and will not matter if the article is deleted.
:As the problems listed on the AfD are fixable this means that someone should take an interest or risk possible deletion. I have weighed in on "tag removal" only on the grounds that I feel the tag was premature, and not per Wikipedia accepted process, which would include appropriate tags for issues and resolution or not.
