Talk:MX (newspaper)

message: What's your source for saying that MX stands for Melbourne Express?  I've heard that claimed, and wonder if it is correct, but I've never seen it documented anywhere.  Philip J. Rayment 16:47, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)

replies: text: I know that was the name of a totally separate newspaper, so News Ltd. couldn't use the same name, but it is still possible that 'MX' is an abbreviation of 'Melbourne Express'.  To put it another way, perhaps New Ltd. wanted to call their paper Melbourne Express, but couldn't, so used a abbreviation of it instead?  But I agree that without knowing that, it is better not to make a connection in the article, so I agree with the change you made. Philip J. Rayment 02:06, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

replies: text: Somebody in the WWW has had enough time to answer this query, and hasn't, so it's time that it went.  It might make some sense if MX discouraged wastefulness or something, but it didn't say that, and without such a point the sentence wa just useless trivia, so I removed the entire sentence.

message: MX, I'm pretty certain though don't now have any document proof of this, was a reference to 'M-Train' and 'Connex', the two carriers of Melbourne trains at the time the paper launched.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.72.253.155 (talk) 06:19, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

message: Nobody seems to know.. Does it stand for anything? If it is Melbourne something, why isn't the Sydney edition called sX? Someone should ask someone who works for mX.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cliko (talk • contribs) 15:49, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
