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)

Anyone know the origin & history (briefly) of the concept of the Limited Company? I'm fascinated by this as it is the one big idea, the vehicle that has enabled man to pursue profit on an unprecidented scale and it's the juggernaut that is presenting mankind with the most compelling challenge to date: rapid environmental degradation.

[edit] Globalize tag

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)

[edit] Removing the tag

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)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg

Image:Pyat rublei 1997.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 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.
