Complete Rewrite

This is a badly written article, it needs to be looked over and reorded and some bits rewritten. If nobody else wants to do this then ill tackle it some time. It should be better for a article of this importance.

2|entertain

Should 2|entertain have its own page, as a distinct entity from BBC Worldwide? At the moment, 2 entertain and 2entertain redirect to BBC Worldwide. (MediaWiki article naming won't allow an article called 2|entertain, because Naming conventions forbids the use of the | character in article names.)

I don't know enough about the corporate architecture to start the article myself, but I could see potential merit in its existence. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:05, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

BBC Green

It is suggested that BBC Green is merged with BBC Worldwide, yet no discussion has taken place. BBC Green appears to be a very short info stub with little or not interesting facts. Unless any objections are received then I propose the merger to take place.

Done

On another note BBC Worldwide article is very badly wrote and formatted it could be presented much better than is currently. //Melonite (talk) 14:17, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I thought this article is very interesting, but i would incorporate its content in the front page until i find a second source. But basically, if this incident happened, it need get in the front page, since the business worth very much depended on its outcome —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wk muriithi (talk • contribs) 06:16, March 21, 2005 (UTC)

General updates

Hi there. I work for BBC Worldwide and there are some changes that we'd really like to make to this page (e.g. we now have new Sales and Profit figures which were published last month and we also have a new logo) Is it possible to get permission to edit the page? Thanks! — Matt Guenigault (talk • contribs) 14:08, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

BBC Enterprises history

This article only relates history since BBC Worldwide was created out of BBC Enterprises. BBC Enterprises currently redirects to this page. Why is there not any history on BBC Enterprises? Etron81 (talk) 17:27, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

BBC.com

The bbc.com pages are provided by BBC Worldwide, but these are blocked in the UK so I am unable to access. See press release for description: http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/worldwide/060613capital.html John a s (talk) 22:06, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
