Talk:Limited company

message: An Ltd is not really similar to a GmbH at all. I am also doubtful whether the claims IRT Pty. Ltd. and US Corporations are valid. IMHO the claims should be substantiated or removed, or as they say on IRC: "PROOF OR STFU". Komet 21:35, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: why only in the uk?

message: Why has this tag been added? The article specifically states that it refers to a legal concept in a defined area (UK & Ireland), so, how can it be "globalised" other than by links to similar arrangements? Folks at 137 17:53, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Globalize tag

message: I'm removing the tag, (approx. 2 months old) as this is specific to Great Britain, but encourage editors to include links within the article for relevant, similar information in other countries.  Also a see also section should include related terms. User:Pedant 23:32, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg

message: I agree with the post above about the article needing more on the history of the Limited company (though I don't agree with the point that Limited companies have brought about the destruction of the environment). 
I know next to nothing about the history of the Limited company and can find precious little about it, even on the internet. I do know that Gilbert and Sullivan wrote an operetta entitled 'Utopia Limited' in which the trend was for people to set up Limited Companies in order to avoid paying their debts. I believe this was in response to the Limited Liability Act of 1862 which enabled limited liability companies to be set up without an act of parliament. It also allowed shares to be sold to the public. 
I will try to paste a very basic section on this but would be grateful if others with more knowledge could expand upon it.

message: As far as I can tell, the sentence which explains the liabilities associated with a “limited by guarantee” company does not make coherent sense. However, I’m having a hard time determining whether that is truly the case or if, perhaps, I am simply not parsing the words properly or otherwise overlooking the meaning. Could someone else take a look? For reference, here is a copy of the sentence in question: “In a company limited by guarantee, the liability of owners is limited to such amount as the owners may undertake to contribute to the assets of the company, in the event of being wound up.”
