rivision to revision

I think someone should do this article up so it better reflects what Bitesize is. It's not just a website, it's a series of TV programmes and textbooks too. The website isn't the most important part of Bitesize, either. Bitesize is about the whole "bitesize chunks" thing, and that's the same in textbooks, videos and the internet site.

They also now do podcasts.

I've rewritten the entire article. It is now start, pushing for B-class. _{WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN}^{we need to talk.}• 23:03, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The request to rename this article to BBC Bitesize has been carried out. If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag.

Bitesize → BBC Bitesize – BBC officially named its online learning service as BBC Bitesize, not just Bitesize [1]. 125.167.59.74 (talk) 12:19, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Vaticidalprophet 13:51, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The source you provided just has the BBC logo in the corner (as any BBC page would) and generally we look for how third parties report names rather than primary sources like BBC. The sources already on the page are pretty lacking on their own, the journal being the only non-primary source and it only cites bitesize a single time (and refers to it as Bitesize) ASUKITE 15:30, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ASUKITE's point is completely valid. I just wanted to add that I can confirm that in the UK we know it as "BBC Bitesize" and not just "Bitesize", so the move would be fine, as long as we can source it properly. Dr. Vogel (talk) 15:46, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And the ordinary word "bitesize". Anthony Appleyard (talk) 19:54, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See wikt:bitesize. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:34, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Giving that in the UK they called it as BBC Bitesize, i have more source about it, from example are The Independent's article about lockdown learning, The Scotsman, and many more and even social media pages. 125.167.59.74 (talk) 20:22, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
