Best Buy express

The first Best Buy express store opened yesterday https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/about/first-best-buy-express-store-opens-today/blt78c05405a2d2f63f#:~:text=The%20inaugural%20Best%20Buy%20Express,2024%2C%20following%20completion%20of%20renovations. 24.138.55.3 (talk) 15:57, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Article should be renamed back to The Source

I'm not sure renaming the page to Best Buy Express is the right thing to do. The change from The Source to Best Buy Express is more than just a simple rebranding. About half of the Source stores were either closed or relocated and the head office was itself shut down. But most importantly, the new name is a brand that already existed when The Source was around with its own page on Wikipedia. Even though the stores are technically the property of Bell, this is for all intent and purposes nothing else than Best Buy selling its own merchandise with kiosks dedicated exclusively for Bell services.

This article should follow the example of Lowe's Canada/Reno-Depot/Rona+, leaving the name of thee page to The Source and moving the content of Best Buy Express into a section of the Best Buy article alongside Best Buy Mobile.

To conclude, I didn't find any source that the retailer doing business as Best Buy Express is officially called The Source (Bell) Electronics Inc. Therefore the first sentence of the article might be outright incorrect so I have removed it. 76.65.74.70 (talk) 15:29, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
