so....[edit]

Why, where and when did the "Cammell" bit get tacked on, and the "Vickers" removed? I can't help thinking this is a reasonably important bit of missing info... anyone know? 193.63.174.10 (talk) 09:09, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Requested move 15 October 2018[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Metro-Cammell. While the assertion that it has "never been called Metro Cammell" is indeed false, I'll add this ngram {{url|https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Metro+Cammell%2CMetro-Cammell&year_start=1800&year_end=2000}} to the equation, clearly favoring the move (note also existence of Metro Cammell Weymann, a separate company).

Metro Cammell → Metro-Cammell – The company has never been called "Metro Cammell". For a while it was Metropolitan Cammell, and then changed to Metro-Cammell. see evidence here: [1] [ ElshadK (talk) 15:54, 15 October 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. Iffy★Chat -- 15:43, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
