Suggested change - March 2017

Hi, RELX Group published their Annual Report last week, so there are a number of things which currently cite last year's report that can now be updated on this page - income/revenue figures etc. The new report is available here: http://www.relx.com/investorcentre/reports%202007/Documents/2016/relxgroup_ar_2016.pdf - I'm happy to update myself, but posting here first in case anyone else would rather do it as I'm an employee and don't like editing the page myself in case conflicts of interest arise. Thanks Ryoba (talk) 11:32, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Done. Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 20:02, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Brilliant - thanks! Ryoba (talk) 10:49, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

A few other suggestions

A few other minor suggestions to update the page with 2016 data, if possible?

3rd paragraph: "In 2000, two-thirds of revenues were from print and only a small percentage was digital; by 2015, those numbers had been reversed" - change "by 2015" to "by 2016".

Significant disposals: "In 2016, RELX sold Elsevier Weekly in the Netherlands" - source:http://www.reedbusiness.com/news/reed-business-information-sells-elsevier-weekly-and-beleggersbelangen-magazine-to-new-skool-media/

Operations > Scientific, Technical & Medical: Top paragraph - "...generated revenues in the year to 31 December 2016 of £2.3 billion" [1] Fifth paragraph - "It publishes 420,000 articles a year..." [1]

Operations > Risk & Business Analytics: Last paragraph - "...helped trace 163 missing children" [1]

Operations > Exhibitions: Is it possible to remove the last paragraph about selling the defense business as this is already covered in depth in the 'Controversy' section?

Controversy > Boycott: Change last sentence to: "In 2016, Elsevier received 1.5 million article submissions" [1]

Many thanks Ryoba (talk) 14:37, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

Done. Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 20:03, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

Suggested change, April 2017

RELX has now sold New Scientist (https://www.ft.com/content/4127d94c-1f8c-11e7-b7d3-163f5a7f229c), so can it please be removed from the 'Leading brands' part of the Risk section? (and maybe added to the disposals section?). Thanks Ryoba (talk) 14:05, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
