Alba

Scotland (Alba) but not Wales (Cymru) - Reasons for this? 84.67.145.16 (talk) 21:32, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because there doesn't seem to be a separate BBC Cymru article. Have appended "(Cymru)" to the BBC Wales link. Sardanaphalus (talk) 00:35, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Key Properties Mentioned in Template not accurate

A report found here: https://www.nao.org.uk/report/managing-the-bbcs-estate/by the National Audit Office (United Kingdom) reports here: https://www.nao.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Managing-the-BBC-estate.pdf Media City Salford is the largest key property outside of London the 3rd highest running cost of any BBC facility outside of London and the largest number of BBC employees on site at a BBC facility outside of London basically its most important property outside of London ahead of Cardiff and Birmingham and according to this here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/insidethebbc/managementstructure/biographies/webb_alice BBC North/Salford produced over 39,000 hours of output a year across TV, Radio and the Red Button are now made in the North, with more than 3,000 staff now at MediaCityUK, Salford making it the BBC’s key digital centre outside of London. So why is it relegated to the other properties section.--Navops47 (talk) 17:00, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Television Centre and defunct locations

Given this is no longer a BBC property I wonder if it should be indicated as former (eg with its dates beside it). Also is there a case for adding Lime Grove and the BBC facilities at Alexandra Palace given their significance in BBC History? Dunarc (talk) 20:16, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

For now I have put (Formerly) beside Television Centre. Dunarc (talk) 22:34, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have added Lime Grove as it is fairly significant. Dunarc (talk) 19:47, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
