Talk:Pearson Education

message: I've altered the year of establishment from 1725 (when Longman's was established) to 1998 when Pearson Education came into being. (Longman's does need its own page, but I don't think it should be here) Dsp13 (talk) 21:18, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Year of establishment

message: I am confused. 
The introduction to this article says that Pearson Education is headquartered in New Jersey, USA. On the other hand, the outline box on the right reads its headquarters are in London, England!
Could you please clarify in which place it is based?
Thank you.

message: There is no New Riders article, but it is called for often due to the many book citations for the label.  I plan to create New Riders, and link it to the Imprints section.  Then to create New Riders Press and point it to New Riders.sinneed (talk) 02:55, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

message: This was typed "QUE Publishing" in this article.  This is not an unusual typo, because the logo uses letter all the same size, inviting confusion.  I am setting up a redirect to point QUE Publishing links to Que Publishing.  sinneed (talk) 02:57, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: How is Que Publishing pronounced? I thought it was KWEE but it occurs to me that it could just as easily be KAY, CUE, KUHH (as in French), or KWAY. If there's an authoritative source, it should go in the article. I've never heard it spoken, myself. Snezzy (talk) 18:00, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

message: I know that colleges like the University of Alabama do almost all of their undergraduate math using the MyMathLabs/mylabsenterprise  website. When I took math there, a I took math classes that were taught completely using MyLabsPlus. The instructor and math lab tutors would help students with difficult problems.

message: The article Pearson Education states the company changed names from Pearson Education to Pearson making this a second article about the same conglomerate company. All Pearson articles should be merged under one name to avoid confusion mentioning the name changes and updating activities of their international divisions instead of using different defunct names. Much of info is outdated and from primary sources like the company itself creating an inaccurate biased article. Editors should contact the company PR office to get updated info not on the websites, I guess. Primofacts (talk) 21:34, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: This is incorrect. Pearson plc has been a multinational conglomerate incorporating numerous industries since the 1840s. Pearson Education is a subsidiary of that conglomerate and did not even exist until 1998. Softlavender (talk) 02:55, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merge with Pearson PLC 

message: I cannot believe that someone simply renamed InformIT into InformIT (publisher), then article got vandalised, nominated for deletion whilst vandalised, and merged here.  You can literally go to any bookstore and look at any major book in the computing section, including those not published by Pearson (see the list of other publishers in the article), and InformIT references will all be there.  This must be un-merged back into InformIT (publisher), and then moved back into InformIT.  The Australian Informit, as presently redirectled from disambig, doesn't even mention "informit" at all.

replies: text: The article was merged as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/InformIT (publisher). Have you attempted to discuss this with the closer, User:MBisanz? Iffy★Chat -- 12:52, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with a split to a new article ,  and , mainly because the redirect "Informit" takes one away from the Informit DAB page. This means that the user could easily miss the DAB page, which also includes a link to  Informit (Australia), currently a redirect to section but for which I want to create a short article. However, the latter is a publisher of sorts though, albeit with other functionality, so the names might need further consideration. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:51, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

message: Wu v. Pearson alleges that Pearson engaged in systematic copyright infringement by acquiring licenses for photos with limited scope and then exceeding the number of copies etc. which it had license for. Not sure if the case proceeded after the April 2012 order: https://dockets.justia.com/docket/new-york/nysdce/1:2009cv06557/349611
The class action was approved in 2011 and reported by some news at the time. Nemo 08:01, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
