message: I don't doubt that this section is more or less factual, but the language has major POV issues. Some references would also be nice - at the moment, it just sounds like some unreferenced musings by disgruntled ex-employees -- Ferkelparade π 21:52, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: The section Business Practice and Treatment of Employees

message: "The company refocused its business on the distribution of electrical supplies. In effect, it had sold most of its professional electrical distribution business in 1988 and in 1994 sold its subsidiary GDFI, the leading French distributor of industrial supplies." How can it have retained its core business of the distribution of electrical supplies if it both sold its electrical distribution business and sold its subsidiary that was the leading distributor of industrial supplies? 
Is the meaning that it sold the business of distributing electrical power, as distinct from electrical supplies, and also sold its subsidiary that distributed general industrial supplies, restricting itself to the distribuion of equipment and other tangible products for electrical uses in industry? ` DGG ( talk ) 00:19, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

message: There is a high risk this company might be confused with other uses of SFR (disambiguation), and in particular with the Société française radio-électrique.

message: I propose, that we use the English format for numbers (e.g. the dot as the decimal separator). SFR made roughly 12 billion Euro sales, so this means 12.183 (with a dot) and not 12,183 (which are 12 trillions).

Talk:Champagne Lanson

message: I oppose the merge of (Champagne) Lanson, a champagne house, into Lanson International, which seems to be a stock-traded holding company owning several champagne houses. Individual champgne houses registered with CIVC fulfill notability criteria on their own, are likely to be more looked-up articles than their corporate owners, and would focus on other content, e.g. viticulture, oenology, house style and history. Tomas e (talk) 14:55, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Wall of the Ferme générale

message: Just saying. Elinruby (talk) 01:53, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Your point relates to my point below. On other pages on the internet I see the name of the wall translated in English as "wall of the Farmers General", which seems like an (almost) correct translation. The name of the wall doesn't refer to just any other farm, or a 'general farm' or 'general farmers', whatever that would mean, it refers to a specific taxation system. And as the English wiki page about it (Ferme générale) mentions, quote: "The major tax collectors in that unfair, and therefore highly unpopular tax farming system were known as the fermiers généraux, which would be tax farmers-general[a] in English.[1]". So either the wall, and this article, should be called "Wall of the Fermiers généraux", consistent with the French name, or it should be correctly translated as the "Wall of the farmers-general". Those are my thoughts about it... Greetings, RagingR2 (talk) 09:22, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  why is "general farm" being translated as "farmers general"? 

message: In French (and on the French Wikipedia) this wall is called: Mur des Fermiers généraux . So why is the English article called "Wall of the Ferme générale" (single) instead of: "Wall of the Fermiers généraux"? This seems inconsistent, and an unncessary change. As the French wikipedia mentions, the name indeed refers to the 'Ferme générale' , but the French name of the wall nonetheless uses 'Fermiers'. Greetings, RagingR2 (talk) 09:08, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: In addition: not only is "fermiers" a plural, it means "farmers" (not farms). So calling it the wall of the farm general, when in French it's called the 'wall of the farmers general', seems illogical. Greetings, RagingR2 (talk) 09:14, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
