Looking further up, at a time there were too few pictures, but what I see today looks more like too many, and many sandwiching the text. Am I the only one to think so? -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:54, 18 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Renaming

Latest comment: 1 year ago5 comments3 people in discussion

See https://www.rbo.org.uk/ where it says We are making changes to our website to reflect our new name – the Royal Ballet and Opera

For now I will put in a redirect request, but probably we should be thinking about reorganising articles to reflect the rebranding Nick Levine (talk) 18:24, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I second this, Wikipedia should maintain modernity. Drdr150 (talk) 19:35, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Renamed and cleaning up now Nick Levine (talk) 06:27, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Drdr150 and Nick Levine, did y’all consider if the rebranded name is the common name? Best, Reading Beans 07:25, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Right now: hard to say. With time: I’m sure it will become so. Can’t prove it , either way. Nick Levine (talk) 18:03, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
