Talk:The Ritz Hotel, London

message: It appears to me that "the Ritz Hotel" fails the "capitalised 'the' in running text" test, and should probably be moved to Ritz Hotel, as per the naming conventions.  Anyone be strongly opposed?  Alai 23:50, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: On what grounds was the note that Gary Glitter visited the Ritz "suspected vandalism", because he is now a convict? Wikipedia assumes good faith and Glitter was a big star for many years, so to remove his name because of "suspected vandalism" is not really correct because there is no ground to suspect it is vandalism. If Adolf Hitler was among the people who were regular visitors at this hotel no one would remove his name for "bad taste" (a reason given previously for the removal of Glitters name). If Elton John, Paul McCartney or Elvis Presley’s names had been listed (all major pop stars too) I doubt anyone would be removing their names for "suspect vandalism". Glitter himself said in his 1991 autobiography he was a regular visitor to the Ritz. Wikipedia is not censored, so his name can not be removed for bad taste, or for "suspected" vandalism, when it is not in the context of being so. Thus, I have re-added his name. 74.65.39.59 02:40, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

message: If the fire really was notable enough to include in this article (and it probably is, just), then surely it should be a footnote in the History section, not a subheading of its own. To give it its own section seems to be blatant recentism to me. Yeti Hunter (talk) 22:39, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

message: It seems to be the case that legal action is taking place against any other businesses called Ritz. It may be hard to assess numbers, but it does appear widespread http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2251595/Youre-Ritz--WERE-Ritz-London-landmark-orders-rural-minnow-change-name.html Ritz Brighouse also affected no source sorry, and there are others. This should be worth mentioning?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.113.192.15 (talk) 00:40, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
