I am part of the Macmillan Education marketing team, so want to make clear there is the potential conflict of interest, but I have tried to remain as neutral as possible here, with the latest facts. Thanks!Macmillanelt (talk) 14:37, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

History section is badly lacking

[edit]

Doesn't say when the company was founded or by whom: Google suggests in 1843 by brothers Daniel and Alexander Macmillan. But your page has nothing prior to the 21st century! Equinox 20:59, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

True. You have prompted me to have a go at a more comprehensive outline of the history. Mrmedley (talk) 12:56, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
