Talk:Wilko

Page moved
The vote above should never have taken place. They changed their name at corporate level, changing the page name to Wilko should've been uncontroversial. Digifiend (talk) 02:25, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
 * - The amount of people on this place who enjoy making a big fuss outta nothing is damn right ridiculous - Had I moved it myself we both know I or the mover would've ended up at ANI and no doubt blocked ....., I absolutely agree it should've been moved a long time ago!, – Davey 2010 Talk 02:55, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
 * @Davey2010 Shouldn't it be moved to Wilko Ltd. per WP:NATDAB? Or Wilko per WP:PRITOP? 90.255.19.247 (talk) 08:52, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Wilko (retailer) → ? – Move to Wilko Ltd. per WP:NATDAB, or Wilko per WP:PRITOP. 90.255.19.247 (talk) 17:16, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Wilko Ltd. as poorly considered. The current title represents the name of the organisation adequately. We don't have the Tesco article called Tesco plc or Sainsbury's titled J Sainsbury plc, etc. However, i'd be open to considering a support for the article being moved to the Wilko primary title (and that in turn gaining (disambiguation) parenthesis), as the retailer seems to be the WP:PTOPIC based on the alternatives listed and average pageviews.

 * Oppose because we don't name articles in this way but would support the latter part. – Davey 2010 Talk 19:48, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Wilko Ltd.. Not how we name articles. Support Wilko. Probably is primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:43, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Wilko Ltd., but happy to Support Wilko if it is the clear primary topic (signing this as someone with the surname Wilkinson and a long-standing Wilko nickname!). Paul W (talk) 13:33, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Wilko is the actual name. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:19, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * @Joseph2302 So you support Wilko? 90.255.19.247 (talk) 15:53, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * oppose Percy2345 (talk) 16:22, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Best known as simply Wilko.--A bit iffy (talk) 20:55, 3 August 2023 (UTC) Update to clarify: I oppose Wilko Ltd. because generally we don't append 'Ltd.' or similar as per the earlier response re Tesco etc. I would support either the existing Wilko (retailer), or simply Wilko if it's generally felt that the UK retailer is the predominant meaning.--A bit iffy (talk) 09:28, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
 * @A bit iffy So you support Wilko? 90.255.19.247 (talk) 07:05, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Updated my response above.--A bit iffy (talk) 09:28, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Deal with The Range
I have just added the now public figure of £7 million The Range Group paid to acquire the Wilko brand, website and IP. This can be found on page 16 of the Administrators report found on Companies House. It must be noted that "Wilko Limited" has changed its name to "WL REALISATIONS (2023) LIMITED". Filing history.

Article scope
This article is getting a bit confusing, should it be reverted to only focus on the former company? Like Debenhams? Or remain the mash-up of former company, retained The Range brand?  Dank Jae  15:19, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
