News Corp → News Corp (2013–present) – The original and spin-off News Corp companies have nearly identical page views several years following the spin-off. Since the original company is still of high profile, the spin-off should be disambiguated by its year of establishment and the "News Corp" namespace be redirected to the original company and clarified by hatnote since the spin-off is comparatively second in importance. WikiRedactor (talk) 03:44, 22 March 2019 (UTC)--Relisted. – Ammarpad (talk) 16:05, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
- comment News Corp and News Corporation did not exist at the same time, and both articles have hatnotes pointing to the other. 21st Century Fox was the legal successor to the older company after News Corp was spun off. I would object to the name of the current company becoming a redirect to the former company. If this move goes ahead, the current title should become a disambiguation page. --Scott Davis Talk 04:19, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
- I support the move proposed and the conversion of the resulting redirect to a dab, for the reasons outlined above. UnitedStatesian (talk) 01:37, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

Wiki Education assignment: Introduction to Political Communication
[edit]
This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation–supported course assignment, between 2 January 2026 and 18 March 2026. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): SixSendy (article contribs).

Article Requires Major Cleanup
[edit]The more I read this article, the more I realized that it is in need of a major cleanup. Upon further investigation, it became clear that most of the issues originated from the Wiki Education assignment, in which user SixSendy added multiple biased sources, directly from News Corp itself, which portray the company in an overly positive light. One statement added by this user even included a personal attack. It’s disappointing that whoever was leading this course did not double-check their students work. Is anyone willing to spend the time needed to cleanup this article? ~2026-34943-94 (talk) 20:36, 26 July 2026 (UTC)
