Is this company publicly owned? Do they sell shares of the company oon the stock market? Thelordnyax ( talk) 02:24, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
"Random House entered reference aneeq ... " -- none of the definitions of "aneeq" I have found make sense in this context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.85.194.13 ( talk) 00:02, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
"Within the last year, they have begun distributing..." This construction only makes sense if one knows when the article was written. -- Shunn 15 August 2006
Got a question for Chris Cerf? He was the senior editor at Random House for eight years, and is son of Bennett Cerf. Post your questions before 25 April 2005. -- Zanimum 18:11, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
i think that Dan Brown is so important for Ran.House and he is not listed here
Should we list everybody who has three books out? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.88.213.74 ( talk) 23:18, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Are these two companies? Or is it one company with two (geographical) divisions? This should be made clear in the (to be written) lead section. I am afraid I can not do this, I know zilch of publishing, and even less of companies.

The article needs a bit more history, particularly with respect to the (relatively) recent reorganization which put all of Bertelsmann's English-language publishing under the Random House umbrella. The previous structure was more closely reflective of the way in which the publishers had merged. 121a0012 ( talk) 05:58, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
I cut this from the main text as it is rather slanted in language, and doesn't fit with the rest of the article -- also an uncited quote. Feel free to rewrite to be NPOV and source, and put back in. -- phoebe / ( talk) 19:02, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Making one of the most dramatic environmentally-conscious production moves of any major publisher to date, Random House is significantly increasing its reliance on recycled paper. Calling the program "the most substantial environmental initiative in the company's history," the house plans to incrementally raise the amount of recycled paper it uses over a four-year period, with a goal of upping its current 3% to 30% by 2010.
"Broadway Books" redirects here, even though I don't even find it anywhere in the page/article. Please elminate the redirect. (I don't know how.) Thanks! Softlavender ( talk) 00:22, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Three Rivers Press is a trademark of Random House Inc. as seen here ( Ekabhishek ( talk) 07:33, 4 October 2008 (UTC))
I was just browsing articles and I noticed that this article states that Random House is the largest trade book publisher in the world. However, the article for Penguin Group ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penguin_Group) clearly states in it's opening paragraph that it overtook Random House as the largest trade book publisher as of 2011. Therefore, if that claim can be verified, this article should be amended to read "Random House is the second largest trade book publisher in the world". Either that, or the claim in the Penguin Group article should be removed.

The five-column display doesn't work. I don't know whether rearrangement in four columns is worthwhile or we(someone) should skip that and go directly to three.
The organization of this section needs to follow the primary organization above. For example, the International division/group/whatever needs to begin a new column, if not a new section below the U.S. -- P64 ( talk) 00:57, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
Is the house pictured in the Random House logo a real building? If so,, where and when did it exist? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.147.131.83 ( talk) 23:27, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
This article definitely needs some clean-up--in particular the list of divisions area. I will start working on this--it will be slow-going though. -- Jaldous1 ( talk) 21:51, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Keystone18, SMcCandlish, Spicemix, Daask The official website link is dead, presumably because it's now part of Penguin Random House. Following on from that presumably the redirect of Pimlico (publishing imprint) and Pimlico (publishing imprint), an imprint of publisher Random House to RH should now be to PRH and Pimlico Books included in the list of imprints there, and Pimlico Books at Random House edited (possibly including a link to Pimlico Books). I specifically mention Pimlico as it was the publisher of a book I found online but List of publishers also includes Harvill Press, Pantheon Books and Vintage Books also "at Random House".
It seems more logical that "In 2019, Penguin Random House acquired British children's book publisher Little Tiger Group ..." should be in the PRH article.
I wonder if some paragraphs in the Organization section would also be more appropriate in the PRH article. Even if not, tense changes and other edits may be needed. In any case it includes five "citation needed" tags. Mcljlm ( talk) 09:43, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
