Scope of category edit

I have removed the headnote, for 3 reasons. 1. Companies are not "incorporated in England", they are incorporated in Great Britain, and registered in either England and Wales or in Scotland. 2. All companies operating in England are subject to English law. 3. Just about every other category of companies by locality refers to companies based in the locality, or with their principal operations there, not companies which have their registered office there. We do not categorise Category:Companies incorporated in Delaware, but Category:Companies based in Delaware. --Mhockey (talk) 19:57, 23 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
