Talk:Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering

Renaming
Did it really make sense to rename from Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering Ltd?

The edit summary refers to WP:NCCORP, but that says: "Legal status may be included when disambiguation is not needed for companies that have commonly used acronyms such as Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) or British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC). Do not abbreviate the legal status in these cases."

As VSEL was widely known by that acronym, wouldn't it make sense to leave the page title as it was?

Andrew Bond
Wasn't Vickers the armaments company that James Bond's Scottish father, Andrew Bond, worked for? I think that would be notable to include in the article but I'll defer judgement to someone else for now. Sheavsey33 (talk) 04:21, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
