Proposed Merger of Telecom Australia and Telstra

I have proposed that Telecom Australia be merged with Telstra. They are, after all, the same company and are just different trading names relevant to the times. 121.45.225.44 (talk) 14:35, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

  • Oppose. They are not the same company. Telecom Australia was not a company at all. Telecom Australia was a trading name used by a statutory authority (Australian Telecommunications Commission) before it became a statutory corporation (Australian Telecommunications Corporation). 203.7.140.3 (talk) 01:15, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support. They may not be the same company but Telecom Australia is an important part of Telstra's history. It is already mentioned in the History section of this article. In fact in its current state the Telecom Australia page could be safely deleted without any loss of important information. All it has is a statement that it existed then a rather arbitrary section on phonecard art.--Amaher (talk) 23:33, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Telecom Australia was in fact an ongoing Royal Commission when it started. Also Specifically Telecom Australia was an "Engineering" company primarily, which supplied telecommunications services to clients.

Telstra in contrast is a "Services" company which supplies telecommunication services to clients. In one instance the company was a Government Commission and public entity, whereas Telstra is a Corporation with Shareholders. Perhaps it may be argued that Telecom Australia Should retain a page because it was a Government owned and run making it an arm of Government, thus significantly and intriniscally different in both function and purpose.

CEO Table

Well done to the person that has added the CEO Table to the artical - its a good idea, but it needs to be used - if any one wants to move it within the artical so it sits in a better loaction, or expand on it in any way that would help - at the moment its only a list of names.

Dear anonymous: you could also just move it:) --Rmarsden (talk) 09:20, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
