This article read a lot like an ad --AW 12:55, 16 May 2007 (UTC) There is a lot of unsubstantiated claims. For example, what is the source for the claim that Areva is No.1? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.57.156.241 (talk) 09:12, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Areva.png

Image:Areva.png 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 Wikipedia articles 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.

If there is other 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 19:33, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

I thought fair use of logos was fairly well established. theanphibian 05:16, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Areva is not an acronym

So why write it in capitals ?--ArséniureDeGallium 05:45, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Look here: http://www.areva.com/servlet/home-en.html and here: http://www.areva.com/servlet/operations-en.html. As you can see it is written "AREVA" all over the place. It's not just a logo thing. So why did you move this article back to "Areva"? ---Majestic- 02:24, 7 September 2007 (UTC)


[edit] In this case, it doesn't matter whether "AREVA" is an acronym

As with many companies of European origin (e.g. GLOCK), the name is properly written in all capitals. The internal AREVA style guide indicates the same. This company's name is properly written AREVA (ALL CAPITALS). Steven (talk) 17:10, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I can't explain it, but this really bothers me. This article should be "AREVA" in all-caps. Can anyone provide a a reason for not changing it? Each reference to AREVA should be in all-caps. Areva NC should be AREVA NC. Areva NP should be AREVA Np, and so on...Steven (talk) 23:42, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Organization

I thought Areva merged all of the separate parts; Areva NP, Areva NC (formerly Cogema), Areva T&D so that they're now all just simply Areva. My information is a little old, and I'm not an expert on Areva. This article really needs attention from someone who knows what they're talking about. -Theanphibian (talk • contribs) 06:22, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pending Move of this Article

I propose moving this article from Areva to AREVA as well as related artcles to their all-caps counterparts and furthermore to change all references to Areva in the text of the article to AREVA. This would be consistent with the AREVA-published style guide. I propose making this change by 00:01 2008-05-01 (UTC). Any objections?Ratherthanlater (talk) 02:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I capitalized the name of the company in the article. It would be great if you would please just keep it and not change it back. It is the proper format of the spelling of the name, pursuant to company policy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ratherthanlater (talk • contribs) 17:33, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Compromise on the Matter of Renewables v. Nuclear

I think it was reasonable to leave it at "Energy Company" as opposed to Nuclear. Although I AREVA is a renewables company too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ratherthanlater (talk • contribs) 13:22, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
