Update?

@Pigsonthewing Can you please explain how can we update a page on an business that no longer exists? The company has no history beyond 2000 as it was renamed House of Fraser, which has an extremely comprehensive history of the company since 2000?

The store in Birmingham still operates. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:13, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Birmingham store is now House of Fraser, which has its own page. So again how can a company that was rebranded in 2000 have a history? Davidstewartharvey (talk) 12:19, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rackhams return

I have currently deleted the link and unreferenced info about the new Rackhams website. This has no coverage anywhere on the net of its return. As per company house this was previously Gemini Devices who renamed themselves Rackhams in Nov 2023, but seem to have no history anywhere other than company house.
