On 3 January 2025, it was proposed that this article be moved from Bed Bath & Beyond (online retailer) to Beyond, Inc.. The result of the discussion was moved.

where is the info from the Bed Bath Beyond article?

Overstock.com was operating before it bought Bed Bath Beyond assets om 6/23/2023: archive.ph//g60n2 I think that should be made clear.

There should be a paragraph further down the article that explains that. BBB was a successful company so to have that article page trashed I think is wrong. 2601:152:C00:67B0:6D0F:5BD:1CA6:E2B (talk) 09:54, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

I would be in favor of a separate article about the now closed former brick and mortar retailer BBB. I assume could be reconstructed from archives, perhaps as noted above. I SEE that there is a separate article differentiating the BBB "Inc" from BBB online. Does that already incorporate the archived material sufficiently? I agree the point of referring to that, perhaps in introductory materials. Csp-interest (talk) 14:15, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
I see these issues are largely already taken care of. How do I delete this comment? Csp-interest (talk) 14:23, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

Talk pages

The articles titled Bed Bath & Beyond (aka Bed Bath & Beyond (big-box retailer)) and Bed Bath & Beyond (online retailer) are about different companies, but Talk:Bed Bath & Beyond (online retailer) redirects to here (Talk:Bed Bath & Beyond). I don't know the topic well enough to work out which comments on this talk page, and its archive, apply to which company. Please can a subject expert sort them out so each article has its own talk page as normal? Certes (talk) 22:47, 11 October 2023 (UTC)

@20:35, 11 October 2023 162 etc. moved page Bed Bath & Beyond to Bed Bath & Beyond (online retailer) over redirect (No consensus to make this the primary topic.)
@22:32, 11 October 2023 Estar8806 moved page Bed Bath & Beyond (big-box retailer) to Bed Bath & Beyond (Requested by 162 etc. at WP:RM/TR: Undiscussed. This has been bounced around a few times, but should stay primary topic until a discussion happens)
@12:56, 12 October 2023 Jesse Viviano moved page Talk:Bed Bath & Beyond to Talk:Bed Bath & Beyond (online retailer) over redirect (Follow the moved article)
@12:58, 12 October 2023 Jesse Viviano moved page Talk:Bed Bath & Beyond (big-box retailer) to Talk:Bed Bath & Beyond (Follow the moved article.)
Appears to be sorted out now. Fortunately we still have a handful of competent admins who can clean up after incompetent page movers. – wbm1058 (talk) 03:40, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
Sounds a bit like an attack but a deserved one at that. Don't know how that page got moved without the talk, same thing happened at Coup! around the same time (I can't possibly think of how I would've unchecked move associated talk, but I digress). Glad there are "competent" admins who can clean up. Though I resent the implication of "incompetence" from taking an incident or two as one's entire track record, this certainly would've warranted a trouting. estar8806 (talk) 03:51, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
@Estar8806: see User talk:Wbm1058#Oops. Part of the problem is with the community kicking out old administrators because they have become "out-of-touch" and are unfamiliar with current practices and recent changes, like say, a bug that was first reported in 2007 that the developers say is a desired feature, not a bug, and have made a "low" priority – meaning, if ya want it done, ya gotta do it urself! So page movers need to be aware of this bug, and manually work around it, until it's fixed. Don't take this personally – you are one of many, some of whom are administrators! wbm1058 (talk) 13:38, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
@Wbm1058 I appreciate this. I appreciate you pointing the bug out, I was totally unaware of it and completely confused. Thank you for clearing up that confusion. estar8806 (talk) 17:26, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

Bed Bath & Beyond (online retailer)Beyond, Inc. – Reposting malformed request on behalf of User:108.54.96.167, with the following rationale: "Beyond is now parent to Bed Bath Beyond and the relaunched Overstock, so it's not doing business as just Bed Bath and Beyond." 162 etc. (talk) 04:20, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

  • Move to Beyond, Inc. This article is mainly about the company. It now operates two different online stores, Bed Bath & Beyond and Overstock. It does not talk enough about either of the stores for them to be separated. However, having both stores under the same company makes naming the article after one of them a bit problematic.
