Deadline Hollywood is reporting that they're keeping the 20th Century Fox name. Trivialist ( talk) 22:35, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved. Timrollpickering ( talk) 13:07, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
– Because the News Corporation will be splitting into two companies--the new News Corp as the media company and 21st Century Fox as the entertainment company, should the 21st Century Fox (company) article be the default 21st Century Fox page and the existing 21st Century Fox page which is a DAB page be moved to 21st Century Fox (disambiguation)? Steelbeard1 ( talk) 15:39, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
The above section was moved from WP:RM/TR, where a speedy rename was filed, instead of a full rename request, to here, where a proper rename request was opened in this poll section where no RM process had been opened previously
The Saudi Prince used to be listed as one of the major owners. Now there is no mention of that. Was this article "sanitized" in order to prevent the fallout of such declaration. I don't even know now that he may have liquidated. Cause this no longer mentions anything about it ?? How far back do you have to go to get the mention of the Saudi Prince as an owner back in the article ?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.242.185.154 ( talk) 15:21, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
Fellow Wikipedians, I added some divisions and some subsidiaries on template for Fox seeing that it peers and many other companies on wikipedia mostly have that listed on their page (templates).Any Help will be welcomed.
Thanks, BBM-Blood. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.191.236.106 ( talk) 11:02, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
CNN posted an article about potential corporate liability from some actions Ailes has taken using corporate dollars for possible personal purposes. Link to article. In the article it mentions a "unique (and controversial) dual-class voting structure". This would hopefully be different from preferred vs common stock (not exactly unique there ...). Anyone know of a good source that would have details on this that we could add to the article? If it's truly something unusual, could be good information here.

I propose that Proposed acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney be merged into 21st Century Fox. I think that the content in the Proposed Acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney article can easily be explained in the context of 21st Century Fox, and 21st Century Fox article is of a reasonable size that the merging of Proposed acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney will not cause problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.

Hi, can anything be mentioned about the Sale to Disney in the owner box at all. Also this has been here since January (it was removed when the bidding war between Comcast and Disney started but added back soon after) and this is one of the reasons why i have kept on adding it back. Pepper Gaming ( talk) 17:14, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
Can I just also say that i'm not really satisfied at that being removed, nothing says add or don't add 'sale to ________ pending' on the template, The only way I would be satisfied if it was added back or the owner box was removed until Disney buy Fox, also if you wanted to remove it you should have removed it back in January not now when it was here (originally) from january up until June when the bidding war between Disney and Comcast started, and now there's not really a valid reason to remove it. I'm going to go to the company template talk page and ask them what should happen in this situation I'll return with what they say. Pepper Gaming ( talk) 08:47, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
Hi there, can Fox be added as a successor as we know when that company launches (which is in 2 days time), Thanks. Pepper Gaming ( talk) 20:40, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
"The Walt Disney Company’s (“Disney”) acquisition of 21CF will become effective at 12:02 a.m. Eastern Time tomorrow, March 20, 2019."-- 178.239.245.174 ( talk) 20:59, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
ViperSnake151 seems to keep changing our edits on who the successor is for 21st Century Fox. My understanding is that Fox Corporation is the spun-off successor for the US broadcasting network, news channel as well as their national sports channels while Disney is 21CF's legal successor for their entertainment assets (i.e. their film and TV studios), cable channels (i.e. FX channel) and any international channels that was owned by Fox. ViperSnake151 seems to claim that Fox Corporation is the only successor for 21CF. Does anyone have any comments about this? 89.187.164.175 ( talk) 07:40, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
This asset list should be merged with List of assets owned by The Walt Disney Company, now that Disney has closed on its deal to buy Fox. 21st Century Fox is being dissolved into Disney and Fox Corporation finally broke apart from 21CF. Its now time to combine the asset lists. ExtraEditing ( talk) 03:41, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of assets owned by 21st Century Fox's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
