This is confusing - I just ended up on the Rolls-Royce plc page and it mentioned no military engine since the Merlin. So I added a bit - not enough I'll guarantee but a start.

Why have we got two articles, Rolls-Royce and Rolls-Royce plc with a lot of common material. but neither being at all definitive. No mention here for instance of the very important merger with Bristol-Siddeley in 1966. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Linuxlad (talk • contribs) 20:22, 25 November 2004 (UTC)

No longer applies. Mark83 13:16, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unreferenced material

I have reverted several instances of unreferenced and potentially libelous material (concerning corporate corruption and bribery) which were added by the following IP addresses:

This material is not suitable for wikipedia; it should be removed on sight unless sufficient references and corroboration is provided. Other Rolls-Royce articles may be similarly targeted. -- MightyWarrior 14:35, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bankruptcy or Receivership?

RR is commonly said to have gone bankrupt in 1971. However, strictly speaking it went into receivership - only individuals and partnerships can go bankrupt - see Bankruptcy article. As an encyclopedia, should we not be using the correct term rather than the commonly-used incorrect one? Any views??--JCG33 16:18, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Modified the relevant text. Please feel free to be bold and change the text where you consider it necessary – if you do happen to get it wrong, a consensus will hopefully emerge to put it right! -- MightyWarrior 13:41, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
