inaugurated?[edit]

[1951] "inaugurated the Long Lines network," sounds iffy.

Coast to coast voice existed long before then. L1 was installed in the 1930's. Further, there was K-Carrier back to the late 1920's. 166.84.1.1 (talk) 17:56, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was to merge the two articles to avoid confusion to readers of Wikipeida — BrandonXLF ^(t@lk) ^{(ping back)} 12:48, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that AT&T Communications (2017) be merged into AT&T Communications as they are the SAME company just from different times. I think the best approach is to Move AT&T Communications (2017) to AT&T Communications and move AT&T Communications to AT&T Communications's history section. — BrandonALF ^(talk) 01:43, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

BBMatBlood: I think that kind of makes sense even though new AT&T Communications is a subsidiary and one of four principal wholly owned subsidiaries (business units). The other three are- WarnerMedia, AT&T International, and AT&T Ads & Analytics.

I think two separate articles causes confusion and agree with the idea to move AT&T Communications into the History section. – Boothit11 (talk) 16:40, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
