 * Hi. Please do not just blank the redirect without a good explanation. If there is something we have overlooked, please open a new section on Talk:ABC Learning so we can discuss it. Thank you. --Sam Sailor Talk! 00:19, 12 May 2016 (UTC)


 * As the creator of this page, as a re-direct, 7 July 2012‎ I believe that I did so after ABC Learning (ABCL) 'crashed'. Later in August 2012. there were attempts to turn ABCL into a page more about Goodstart (GS) by  who didn't reply to talk-page messages.
 * ABCL "... was once the world's largest provider of early childhood education services"
 * Admittedly Goodstart, IIRC, took over much of what was ABCL, but they are separate entities and should probably be treated as such. If Goodstart is notable, then it should have a separate, non-promotional and encyclopaedic page. It claims:
 * "Goodstart Early Learning is Australia’s largest early learning provider.",
 * but is sourced to the GS home web-page and that doesn't seem to say this. Otherwise this page should re-direct to the ABC Learning page section with information about how GS took over the remains of ABCL. IMHO. - 220  of  Borg 11:16, 18 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Looking at 2011 sources like e.g.
 * , and
 * it appears they did take over ABC Learning assets. 220 of Borg may be right that they should have two separate articles.
 * Looking at sources like e.g.
 * , and
 * confirm that ABC Learning is the largest Australian provider. I notice that drove by and PRODed this article with the rational  after having spend c.  2 minutes on it ( → ). Looking into the references provided, and looking into the sources that can be found - something that obviously takes a lot more time than 2 minutes - a lack of notability is not the challenge here. I am going to de-PROD the article and stub it, the section § History sounds like an inside job to me. Sam Sailor Talk! 12:20, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
