I removed the pronunciation of the Brazilian Nantes, because there is no standard pronunciation for Brazilian Portuguese. I can count six similar, but different ways in which Nantes can be pronounced by a Brazilian. JoaoRicardo 03:59, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Brittany vs Pays de la Loire

I removed the, "It is also the most important city of Brittany" for "It is also the most important city of historic Brittany, but it is in the Pays de la Loire region." It is actually the capital of that region. Matthieu 21:31, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

In the "20th century" Nantes was a centre of the slave trade?

Clearly false.

Nantes infobox

TfD nomination of Template:Nantes infobox

Template:Nantes infobox has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. This template is only used in the Nantes article (and only likely to be). Template should be subst'd here and deleted. _└/_talk 19:53, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

New Infobox Template proposition

I'd like to bring your attention to a new - or other - version of the "Large French Cities" infobox presently at use in a few French cities pages. The present version is much too large, partly because it consecrates too much space to information having little importance to French demography and an only distant and indirect relevence to the city itself. Instead I propose to follow a less cumbersome model closer to that used by the New York City article - you can view the new version in the Paris talk page here. Please view and comment.

As a result of some discussion over the past weeks, there is an updated template available for perusal in its 'published ' form (filled with data) here - all comments welcome. -- THEPROMENADER 07:25, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Inaccurate image

Does anyone else think that the map of France on this page shows Nantes to be to close to the coast? NumberJunkie 02:03, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind, someone's fixed it now NumberJunkie 02:28, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Public transport

"The system works efficiently with moderate ticket rates, rare delays, constant informations about the network and clean transports". This statement is POV and needs to be backed up with sources or removed --Careless hx 02:32, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it should be removed, i experienced the system in Nantes once and it has been on of the best transportation system i ever saw.

I have undone all the revisions of this anonymous user, he can't even spell Brittany let alone string two sentences together. I have just cleaned the article up myself and his pointless revisions, bordering on vandalism, are completely unnecessary and make the article look like nothing more than a glorified sandbox.
