Réunion, France

Hi, thanks for your edit on Template:France top-level domains. Is Réunion an administrative region of France or an overseas territory?

Oxford Dict. mentions it as an "administrative region of France".[1] But others mention it as an "overseas department".[2]

I included it in the France TLD space as I saw that it seemed be a region of France proper. Please let me know what is correct.Gotitbro (talk) 11:05, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is both: it is an overseas region. In that sense, it has the same status as e.g. Martinique (.mq) and Mayotte (.yt), which are also listed as overseas territories in the article. Overseas territories that are 'not' regions include for example French Polynesia (.pf). Spidermario (talk) 19:34, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you.

Thank you for sticking to your guns while able to discuss and disagree with article changes. Your co-operation is not lost on me :) Plasticwonder (talk) 22:16, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

HMT

I am unclear about the scheme for the formation of hexamethylenetetramine (HMT). The scheme balances ok, but why do you write the mechanism that way? My guess is that HMT forms by a much messier and probably diverse pathways.--Smokefoot (talk) 22:30, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Truth be told, I’m kind of taking what Eiden’s article said on it at face value. I’m not competent to assess its veracity. Spidermario (talk) 23:00, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@DMacks: It looks like something that a clever student of organic chem would draw. Nice and tidy. But complex polycondensations rarely seem to happen in such a simple organized manner.--Smokefoot (talk) 23:36, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
