{{edit COI}}

Thanks to [[User:Dormskirk|Dormskirk]] for actioning the merge! I will now look to give recommendations for improving the general article, starting by looking to better distinguish between LSEG and its subsidiary, London Stock Exchange (LSE), where content on LSEG's page sometimes conflates the two entities.

To begin with:

1. Can I propose that a distinguish template is added, alerting readers that the page should not be confused with that of the London Stock Exchange's. It could read as:

:''"Not to be confused with the [[London Stock Exchange]], which is a subsidiary within LSEG."''

2. Can I suggest that the first three paragraphs within the 'History' section are removed as they are unrelated to the history of LSEG, instead providing a summary of the LSE between its founding in 1801 and LSEG's formation in 2007. It therefore is only tangentially connected to the history of LSEG.

The 'History' section would therefore begin with the sentence:

:''"In 2007, the '''London Stock''' Exchange acquired the Milan-based [[Borsa Italiana]] for €1.6bn (£1.1bn; US$2bn) to form the London Stock Exchange Group plc."''

3. Can the two images of the LSE's former premises be removed. Again, these are unrelated to LSEG and are more appropriate on the LSE page.

Thanks again in advance for considering my request! [[User:Adjjure|Adjjure]] ([[User talk:Adjjure|talk]]) 13:38, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
