Subject ambiguity[edit]

The original material in this article seemed to be confusing two different subjects: the original company, CircleLending, and the reinvented company, Virgin Money USA. I've restructured the article, using the existing prose, so that it at least separates the two cleanly.

However, the problem remains: what exactly is this article's subject? If it's about the company as it currently exists, then it should be called Virgin Money USA. But my quick check of the website referred from www.circlelending.com and of the article Virgin Money suggest that there is no need for a separate article for "Virgin Money USA".

If the article remains about the historical company CircleLending, then we can "finish" this article simply by saying it's now the U.S. division of Virgin Money. I wouldn't delete it unless Virgin Money were to incorporate the information here, and this stub could plausibly be expanded to discuss what CircleLending accomplished in its days before being "Virginized". ~ Jeff Q (talk) 17:00, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
