[edit] Name

Shouldn't it be Anglo American plc ?

Yes, but there is a large amount of resistance to giving company articles their formal names. See Wikipedia:Naming conventions#Companies and Wikipedia:Naming conventions (companies) for policy and guidelines. I would prefer the name under which the company is registered to be used, but the preference seems to be to use the trading name, as with Abbey (bank). Noisy | Talk 11:39, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tarmac

Does the Tarmac company deserve it's own page, or should links come here - or to Tarmac ?

Links should be to Tarmac plc, which obviously doesn't exist yet. Noisy | Talk 11:39, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
