There seem to be different data between this article and the NEC website:

NEC:
The NEC has 21 halls in total.... hall 1 hall 2 hall 3 hall 3a (joined to hall3) hall 4 hall 5 Pavilion Arena Forum (the above halls make up the "Piazza")
hall 6 hall 7 hall 8 hall 9 hall 10 hall 11 hall 12 hall 16 (tempory external building) hall 17 hall 18 hall 19 hall 20 (the above halls make up the "Atrium" and "Concourse")
82.16.135.182 ( talk) 22:42, 11 September 2009 (UTC)Ken Clayton 11 Sept 2009: 82.16.135.182 ( talk) 22:42, 11 September 2009 (UTC) There seems to be a major omission in the description of activities at the NEC. From its early days it has been a major conference venue especially for product launches. I organised events there for Leyland Cars and attended launches for IBM, ICL and others. It is what's known as a 'black box' environment because you rent a hall and have to bring absolutely everything in yourself.
The other fact that may be of interest is that the first event to be staged was an open day on 3 January 1976. It was so successful at attracting people that I believe it had to be closed off entirely at one stage during the afternoon (I was working in one of the halls so I'm going only on the basis of what I heard on the NEC's radio system).
I've tried to update the NEC logo as this is out of date with the new one and also the main entrance which is out of date too.
I used the upload wizard to upload the images which I took myself so are my own work.
Every time I add these images in and save the page, a few hours later it has reverted back to the old and my work disappears.

Hi Fort.
Thank you for your quick work on this, very much appreciated and apologies if I missed any of the process to properly annotate the image. — Preceding unsigned comment added by N-allen ( talk • contribs) 13:43, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 2 external links on
National Exhibition Centre. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

I noticed that the NEC Group - who own the Genting Arena, Barclaycard Arena, NEC, ICC and Ticket Factory - didn't have a separate page, just a link back to the NEC. I started a page (basically a list of the facilities owned by the group and the owners of the group) but by the next day it had been deleted and replaced with a link the NEC again. This seems illogical, either there shouldn't be a link to the NEC Group, or there is, and it contains ownership information.
Did I miss something?
