[edit] Parcelfarce

There are numerous comments on the company's performance. These need to be backed up by citations otherwise they come across as POV Dick G 19:42, 9 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Clean up?

'Since 1986 regular daily mail services have been provided by the Royal Mail while retail postal outlets are operated by the Post Office.' this does not make any sense! --Pandaplodder 09:21, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

  • The additonal text recently added on the company's history is poorly written (several typos) and lacks any sources that can be taken seriously - e.g an "employee briefing" is not an encyclopaedic reference, and at best is just hearsay. These new sections need to be backed up with hard evidence - not just one person's original research. Also, the original sentence referenced above (and now deleted from the article) makes sense. It draws the distinction between Royal Mail subsidiary enterprises. For example a non-UK reader might read the term "post office" as referencing all mail services - which is not the case. The Royal Mail's group's corporate structure runs its retail products and services out of its "post office" branded entity and via its post office outlets/counters whereas the physical mail delivery function is more commonly known as the "Royal Mail". The sentence at issue seems to be concise and unambiguous in that respect. When an article has been stable for some time without new additions/re-writes, it is courteous to debate new content/edits before making changesDick G 15:54, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
