|
|
The very first sentence in this article sounds like an advertisement. It really should be written simply as "Comcast Corporation, formerly registered as Comcast Holdings, is a US based mass media and communications company. It is currently ranked as having the highest revenue in the world as a International Media Corporation. |
|
|
== Comcast and AT&T Merger == |
|
|
|
|
|
I feel that the discussion of the merger referenced in item 72, not only leads the audience to presume that comcast has current holdings in AT&T U Verse, but also the source has no affiliation with the security and exchange commission. |

I have just added archive links to {{plural:3|one external link|3 external links}} on ]. Please take a moment to review . If necessary, add {{tlx|cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{tlx|nobots|deny{{=}}InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes: |

:Erm, that should've been "''Ambiguity'' alert". Apparently the mobile version of WP's editor doesn't let us correct our Talk topics, just reply to them. I'm married, so this seems familiar. – ] (]) 07:36, 29 January 2022 (UTC) |

Greetings Wikipedians! Two issues here: 1) The narrative part of this section seemed to be outdated. There was text about results from 5-10 years ago but nothing about more recent years. I deleted the outdated text and added a brief, non-judgmental summary of 2022, supported by citations. 2) A web site called "Simply Wall Street" is cited multiple times by prior editors. How do we know that web site is a reliable source? I'd prefer to see something written by a firm or publication that is closer to Misplaced Pages standards. The boilerplate on "Simply Wall Street" is not impressive: "Simply Wall Street Pty Ltd (ACN 600 056 611), is a Corporate Authorised Representative (Authorised Representative Number: 467183) of Sanlam Private Wealth Pty Ltd (AFSL No. 337927)." Full disclosure: I have no conflict of interest or affiliation with Comcast apart from the fact that I use their cable TV and internet products. Cordially, ] (]) 14:38, 25 August 2023 (UTC) |

:<big><b>BORK.</b></big> First archived link to the wayback machine is broken ("Page Not Found"). It appears the Wayback Machine has archived a "Page Not Found" page, and that is what is being served up. The second two links work fine. ] (]) 19:56, 24 June 2016 (UTC) |

Hello fellow Wikipedians, |

The Comcast logo was updated in early 2024 to include a reflection layer that's not represented here. The new SVG logo is available on Wikimedia Commons, can someone update this here? The correct version of the logo is reflected at https://corporate.comcast.com and at https://brand.comcast.com. |
