Rename page[edit]

It has been suggested that this page should be retitled "New Broadcasting House (Manchester)" and that "New Broadcasting House" should redirect to the page about the rebuilt Broadcasting House in London. The BBC and the rest of the media are using the term "New Broadcasting House" to refer to that building and Wikipedia appears to be out of step. 82.33.37.238 (talk) 08:21, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that there is multiple strong reasons for renaming this page:

BBC use the term "New Broadcasting House" in official documents to refer to the new London building
The Manchester building has been demolished
The site was commonly known as 'BBC Manchester'

Title changed as suggested. GDBarry (talk) 08:27, 12 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
