Reidrect from Kerr McGee
While Kerr-McGee was indeed bought out by Anadarko, it is still relevant as a separate encyclopedia entry, and should not redirect here. Schnabeltier Angriff 19:43, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

144.94.0.4 (talk · contribs) updated the financial data, but the new source they cite is large. I was unable to dig up the precise page number the stuff was on. Could someone else doublecheck?- Mgm|(talk) 22:05, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Lost Lawsuit
I am wondering because I cannot find a hint of the lost lawsuit and the 5.15 billion dollars they had to pay, as in the german Wikipedia [1]. --
- I also can't find any hint about Anadarko having acquired Kerr-McGee in the article or about Kerr-McGee committing something that is not far away from genocide against the Navajos by polluting Navajo territory with corporate waste. Neither do I find that in the Kerr-McGee article. So I can't see if that would be true or false (DE-Wikipedia is known to be not trustworthy on controversial articles). --Constructor 06:57, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

- The word "mess" is taken directly from the reliable cited source, that is what the source calls it and is an accurate description on multiple levels. However since that seems to be causing a problem I changed it. -- C 02:19, 17 April 2014 (UTC)]

- Oppose, Useful, Official, not about a form of petroleum. ✍♪ 12:40, 6 November 2014 (UTC)]
- If it was about a form of petroleum, it would be at Anadarko petroleum; but this request is to Anadarko Petroleum. Dekimasuよ! 22:33, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

- Support per WP:NCCORP. The legal status suffix of a company is not normally included in the article title, except in the case of disambiguation. This is not the case here, if we look for Anadarko Petroleum. As of official name versus common name, Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources. The common name in this case is Anadarko, but it can't be used as disambiguate name. Therefore, Anadarko Petroleum seems to be the best option (and this page redirects here already since 2006 without nobody complaining that they expected it be a type of petroleum).

- Why is "Anadarko" the most common way to refer to the company? A quick google check shows most sources using the full name, a few use Anadarko Petroleum, even fewer Anadarko. -- C 14:00, 9 November 2014 (UTC)]

- Support. It's not easy to get hard numbers on which is more common, but I have the sense that it's "Anadarko Petroleum". As one quick heuristic, the first 20 hits from the New York Times include 13 using "Anadarko Petroleum", 6 using "Anadarko Petroleum Corporation", and 2 using just "Anadarko". As a bonus, this form is more concise and follows the recommendation of talk) 00:41, 12 November 2014 (UTC)]

This company is not defunct
Hello there,
This article wrongly states that Anadarko Petroleum is defunct. After acquisition it became a subsidiary of Occidental Petroleum, details of the transaction are available here
Anadarko Petroleum can also be found on the latest list of subsidiaries of Occidental Petroleum, see here. 62.122.202.193 (talk) 22:48, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
