Not very notable, and rather promotional. Rathfelder (talk) 17:54, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

• Delete. I agree this is promotional and a large chunk of it is aWP:TNT case. Pearson plc is a notable company, but I don't think this grouping of companies once owned (apparently fairly briefly) by Pearson passes the bar of WP:NORG. SpinningSpark 23:02, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

• Possible merge to Pearson plc. As the group was sold and then largely closed down according to a Google news search, there is nothing left to promote. TSventon (talk) 16:52, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

• Merge to Pearson plc, though may not be a simple copy and paste merge. Some prose likely will need to be cut out and this should be added as a former business(es) section/sub-section. We should also indicate it was a division, not a subsidiary. Doug Mehus (talk) 14:49, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
• Merge as above and then Delete this link. This topic was never notable and fails GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 11:42, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

HighKing, Agree with that. Consider that essentially my vote above. The ensuing redirect would not be particularly helpful. Doug Mehus (talk) 15:42, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
