There are two real options for the name of this section:
I've taken the liberty of going through the other 20 préfectures in continental France to see what their sections are called:
As you can see, there is no precedent or pattern here. There are two which conform to the way I would wish to leave the section (Paris and Metz), and there are two which conform to the way in which you wish to leave it (Bordeaux and Lyon). I've explained why I think my way is best (i.e. because this section deals specifically with trains going between Nantes and other regions/cities, while the 'Public transport' section deals with commuter/suburban rail), but anyway I'll leave you reply before changing it again.

This article contains a translation of Nantes from fr.wikipedia. |
Is there really a need to know, right in the introduction, that Nantes has a school of management? No? Good, I thought so, which is why I've zapped that bit. I'm also of a mind to get rid of the Times citation (so what if seven years ago some magazine published another one of their unscientific "rankings"), and the bit about some "innovation agency" (what is that anyway) referring to Nantes in some way or another. I just don't want to overdo the trimming, but I find the lead should rely more on "hard" facts, so to speak. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.153.248.80 ( talk) 13:20, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
Favet Neptunus eunti. means "Neptune favors the traveler." I realizes it's a find point that few people would care about, but "May Neptune favor the travelers." would be Faveat Neptunus euntibus. -- Ioscius ∞ 09:58, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

I'm removed the reference to the Republican Marriage which is very probably an historical myth created after the fact. This had been introduced by an anonymous edit on http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Nantes&diff=prev&oldid=209806479 . The French page about the drownings: fr:Noyades de Nantes has no mentions of "republican marriage", not without reasons, they probably never existed... (the massacres were real, however - I'm keeping the reference to them) -- Farialima ( talk) 21:42, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
Since the Isle of Nantes is in Nantes, the following should be included somewhere in this article. However, I was unable to determine which category would be appropriate, and didn't want to create a 'See also' section with only one item.
Perhaps it could be included as part of the narrative in the 'History' section, where the Isle of Nantes is mentioned (?).
A related item could (should?) be mentioned someplace in the article - or at least a 'See also' item. See:
The Sultan's Elephant -and-
Les Machines de l'île Nantes

Marseilles is the second-largest city in France but is omitted from your list. Dick Kimball ( talk) 16:10, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

on the local blacklistIf you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

Quick question: In the section on the Middle Ages, it included this statement:
Can someone help me figure out where Nominoe should fit into the narrative? It seems like it naturally goes like this:
Does Nominoe fight off the Vikings in 850? Or were the Britons *and* Vikings both fighting over the territory in the years preceding 850? – Todorojo ( talk) 23:24, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
Thank you again! I have reworded this point to say that Nantes was possibly Corbilo. -- 122.108.141.214 ( talk) 21:35, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
