[edit] Dear Frenchmen... sigh...
I know that the French language has such goofy names for numbers ("four twenties, a ten, and a seven" is the way they make "ninety-seven") that it's such a ->pain<- to bother to write the whole year, but in the English language we use all four digits.
These are license plates, which use similar but not identical codes to aircraft and ground-based radio stations. Numbers have significance in these systems. By just leaving two digits, it may indicate that the license plate begins with letters and then switches to digits. After all, we're talking about French Colonial license plates, and who knows what their system is.
Check with your original French sources, and put the year in English with all four digits. --Sobolewski 21:24, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Idea: Face-to-face of license plate codes and domain names?
Just a quick thought, to show differences (Canada=> .ca / CDN, Hungary=>.hu / H, but Croatia=>.hr/HR). Maybe useless, hence a suggestion ;)
[edit] Gibraltar
The code GBZ does not originate from a contraction of 'Gibraltar British Zone'. When the codes were originally notified, GBY was allocated to Malta and GBZ to Gibraltar.
[edit] Serbia

[edit] Solomon Islands
Well, there are SLB - Salomon Island and SLO - Solomon Island in the list. At Page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Country_codes:_S#Solomon_Islands there is SLB the ISO 3166-1 Alpha-3-Code of Solomon Island.
Well, I mean, we have to delete SLB - Salomon Island. --Juri1at 15:14, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] China (People's Republic of) ??
Did we miss the world's biggest country PRC = China (People's Republic of) ?? (I don't see it in the UN reference document, though it is listed in the link that goes to country abbreviations)........ ???? mr_uu 12:33, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
