Fair use rationale for Image:LogoFree.gif
Image:LogoFree.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 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.

France Telecom
A somewhat minor point, but to explain the spelling change I've made: France Telecom no longer takes accents in languages other than French (France Télécom), as per their official policy. This can be seen on their offical site: http://www.francetelecom.com (Full disclosure: as a freelance translator who does work for them, I have firsthand knowledge of their new naming policy. But furthermore, as already stated, the policy is evident from the spelling usage on their official site.) --fraise (talk) 09:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Free and free
I guess the brand name Free is annoying and confusing for English native speakers. The name can be distinguished from the noun thanks to the first capital letter only when it is not located at the beginning of a sentence. Some English-language journalists use the construct "Free.fr" (for example the GigaOm article in references), but it is not the actual brand name and it refers only to the website. As a tentative to improve article readability for English mother tongue readers, I took the initiative to make all occurrences of Free brand bold. Feel free to discuss and give your feeling about that... --Patcus (talk) 10:17, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

simple analog camera?
The sentence about "simple analog camera" is quite surprising and the wikilink is broken. Could someone please have a look? Nicolas1981 (talk) 07:37, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Proposing removal of "Culture" section
The section "Culture" has been around for many years so I am hesitant to unilaterally erase it, but it does not appear to have any value except to promote the company in a biased manner. At best, it appears to be trivia. For now, I have added the "Advert" template Mshenrick (talk) 20:55, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

What's the connection with Proxad?
'Proxad' redirects here, but there's nothing to say what the connection is/was. Was there a name change at some point?
