Merge from John Fairfax Holdings[edit]

John Fairfax Holdings changed its name to Fairfax Media on 12 January 2007.[1] This article was created on 29 January 2007.

The older article should be updated and moved to this name (to preserve long edit history). This article should be moved out of the way first, then merged with the other article. --Scott Davis Talk 08:06, 4 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Performed Full-content paste merger, but long page history was not preserved. Why?--143.238.33.118 06:36, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New logos needed[edit]

We need some new logos for the Fairfax radio stations we should keep the old ones as historical reference, We need new logos for i.e. 3AW, 4BC etc They need to be compliant with Wikipedia logo usage policies, and should be placed on the appropriate articles as Southern Cross broadcasting is no longer Adrian90 (talk) 11:21, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

News in the lede?[edit]

I haven't looked at WP:LEDE yet (I'm on a very slow connection, please forgive me.) but I found it odd that there was "current news" in the initial paragraph. I'd be inclined (presuming that my memory of the guideline is correct, and probably even if it's not) to move that material down. Comments urging caution? - Aaron Brenneman (talk) 00:43, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 19 May 2019[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moot. Nominator moved the pagetoFairfax Media before the move discussion was closed, and they are the only participant in this move discussion, which is almost the equivalent of withdrawing the original request. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 23:12, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Nine PublishingJohn Fairfax Holdings – The article is largely about the historical John Fairfax Holdings rather than Nine Publishing. Nine Publishing is more of a successor to Fairfax subsidiary Australian Metro Publishing, excluding other subsidiaries such as Australian Community Media and Stuff, which Nine has signaled it is intending to sell. The company was know as John Fairfax Holdings for longer than it was known as Fairfax Media and the retrospective article should be known as such.

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Relationship to Nine Publishing[edit]

While I originally took the perspective that Nine Publishing was the successor to Fairfax Media, I have since been convinced that this is not the case. The assets that comprise that are much more consistent with former Fairfax subsidiary Australian Metro Publishing (previously Australian Publishing Media). The Nine Publishing website does not list any former Fairfax assets as publications except those run by AMP. Nine has signalled its intentions to sell off other Fairfax assets including its events arm and NZ subsidiary Stuff. As such, I am of the view that any claim that Fairfax Media has been succeeded by Nine Publishing should be removed. --DilatoryRevolution (talk) 12:13, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nine Publishing is the division that publishes the former Fairfax publications,[2] so is the successor to Fairfax Media. Kenskefield (talk) 02:04, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Can someone give us more info about the evidence of paid editing? - Chris.sherlock (talk) 09:19, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Don't see any particular evidence of it, maybe a bit too much self reporting, e.g. the Sydney Morning Herald, Age etc on their parent, but as one of only two national newspaper publishers, would somewhat limit the pool should it be disqualified.
