Eco, eco or ECO?

The capitalisation "Eco" used in the article is unusual, as in English, currencies are usually spelled in lowercase. However, some sources in the article spell it as "ECO" [1][2]. Anybody care to weigh in? DaßWölf 23:29, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

According to this article. The original Africa's planned eco zone was to include 15 states.

"Martial Ze Belinga, a Cameroonian economist, told DW: "In a way, we now have two Ecos. One that the 15 African countries voted for and whose name was already decided in 2003. And today there is a new Eco which France and the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) countries have chosen — independently of the others."--2A02:ED0:5FC5:DB00:9DAC:918D:D67F:70A7 (talk) 12:57, 25 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The History section is problematic

More certainly, it is an poor translation (maybe from google translate) and copy paste from something, especially in the latter paragraphs. Anyone to fix it? 188.73.194.219 (talk) 17:30, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What does this mean?

"There are only five countries that ended up in Abuja out of the fifteen of the Economic Community of West African States [ECOWAS]", he fumed, cutting the grass under his feet CFA anti-Francs, many of them shouting “white cap and white cap”. It doesn't make any sense to me. Also, all cites should be with references or in blockquotes. --Jakeukalane (talk) 13:55, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
