Talk:RIPE NCC

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The section about RIR's should probably be moved to the actual RIR page, and then included here if necessary.

Agreed. WP:BB. Done. --Alvestrand 20:43, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] French

Anyone knows why is it written in French "Réseaux IP Européens" not in English like "American Registry for Internet Numbers" ? Lothar25 00:01, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I believe it's because the French language was considered
the "international language" (for law and so on) for a long
time. It remains the official language of a bunch of
international organisations including Interpol and the
United Nations. 84.191.153.14
Oh, I see now :) Thanks for answer Lothar25 23:36, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:RIPE ncc logo.gif

Image:RIPE ncc logo.gif 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 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 00:27, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fees

The statement: "Internet number resources do not have any monetary value" is probably not accurate. Perhaps it would be helpful to say that Internet number resources are not a tradeable commodity?

IP addresses are traded, though. Maybe not legitimately but there is definitely a trading market in them. Explaining the RIPE NCC's role or position on this would be helpful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.246.198.44 (talk) 11:57, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
