AfD and notability
editFor some reason this page was nominated for AFD. Result was overwhelming keep, strangely enough. Regards, Ben Aveling 13:21, 24 January 2006 (UTC).
- The reason it was nominated was that this page appeared to be a nn, corporate vanity page offering no info apart from that available on the company's website, and no explaination as to why its notable enough to get an encyclopedia entry. AnAn 02:16, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
It's a really big market research company with a long history that appears in the media all the time, is that not grounds for a wiki article? PeterPartyOn 14:00, 3 April 2006 (AEST)
Is it possible update the company logo to a more professional looking copy? I have not been able to figure out how to do this. A better logo is located here: http://www.roymorgan.com/~/media/Roy%20Morgan/Images/Logos/roy-morgan-logo.png Alexat401 (talk) 02:50, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
Article composition
editIs it just me or does this article seem like one giant advertisement for Roy Morgan? I also note that in terms of Australian state and federal polling, Newspoll is always far more accurate with their predictions compared to the election outcome in comparison to Roy Morgan... not to slag Roy Morgan in any way but it's just what i've noticed and what others would notice if they look at the figures...

Roy Morgan research is the currency for Print Media in Australia. This is significant as most publishers and agencies use the Roy Morgan data to spend their advertising dollars. If Roy Morgan suggest a newspaper or magazine have increased in readership the add agencies and publishers change their rates accordingly. I'm not plugging RMR but it is wikipedia worthy imo. The previous unsigned comment was added by 202.139.104.226 on 6 August 2007.
I'm going to further de-peacock the above paragraph.
Also, in the absence of sources, I'm going to rephrase the sentence "The Morgan Poll is Australia’s only independent polling company..." to "Roy Morgan Research is the only Australian–owned independent polling company..." — I'm thinking of GfK or TNS.
I'm also going to add Template:unreferenced. Michael Bednarek (talk) 10:59, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Roy Morgan Research → Roy Morgan (company) – Or, just Roy Morgan? The current name of the polling company is just Roy Morgan, but this is set up as a DAB page, but there's only one other true alias, which could be dealt with in a hatnote (Gramps Morgan). I could have moved it myself, but thought it best to canvass a couple of opinions as to the best solution, first.

- I agree that Roy Morgan would be the appropriate article name, and to deal with "Gramps" in a hatnote. AFAIK, such a move would require an administrator. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 07:35, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
- Support move to Roy Morgan as ptopic. The singer gets slightly more views, but AFAICT he is almost never referred to in RS as just "Roy Morgan". Colin M (talk) 19:20, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
