All of these are partial title matches or not a match. There's none of these that could conceivably be correctly (or likely to be incorrectly) referred to as just "BBC Studio". (t · c) buidhe 05:48, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• I agree about the articles currently listed (especially if that's all that's there), but maybe we could expand the disambiguation page considerably to actually help people work out which "BBC Studio" it is they are looking for. The articles I would actually consider adding might include pages of both current and historical BBC studios like:

• Broadcasting House, BBC Television, Television Centre, London, Lime Grove Studios
• BBC Manchester, MediaCity UK, New Broadcasting House, Manchester
• BBC Cymru Wales New Broadcasting House

There is arguably a lot of confusion about this and it might be nice to help readers find what they need, given that the term "BBC studio" continues to be used a lot informally, and most of the official names can be hard to keep straight unless you live in one of the areas or work in the industry.

• I agree with Cielquiparle, converting this to a set index (possibly at a title like List of BBC studios) seems like the most helpful way to go. If this is deleted though it should be redirected to BBC Studios, if it isn't it needs a link and/or hatnote there. Thryduulf (talk) 15:44, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to BBC Studios and have a separate set index page (I had to look that up) such as "List of BBC studios" (lower case "s") to explain what all the different BBC studios are, which could be pointed to from "BBC Studios" as a hatnote. (Happy to work on the set index page if needed.) Cielquiparle (talk) 18:04, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I wouldn't object to that outcome, although it is my second choice after this title leading to the set index. Thryduulf (talk) 02:05, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Interesting. What do you think about "BBC Studio" (capitalised) vs. "BBC studio" (small 's')? Or does it nor really matter? Cielquiparle (talk) 06:26, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  BBC studio (lowercase) should definitely lead to the set index imo. Thryduulf (talk) 10:27, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• I agree with Cielquiparle's set index idea. This page had been a redirect to BBC Studios when it was created, but the target page was renamed to BBC Studioworks, with another topic being renamed to BBC Studios. Although the current disambiguation page was only created last week, the title has been ambiguous for a long time now. --Joshua Issac (talk) 23:35, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
