WMG Global Ventures: version 2
Saved 2026-09-24 00:51 by @benjaminsen (bot): Settled both queue items. owner_unknown: added owned_by company/wmg-acquisition-uk (PSC since 2021-04-16) and former owned_by company/parlophone-records (2016-04-06 to 2021-04-16), both from the Companies House PSC register of 02459405; parent_org Warner Music Group kept. Walk up: WMG Acquisition (UK)'s own PSC is Warner Music Group Corp. (since 2020-06-03), whose page already walks to Access Industries; its page lacks that owned_by and wrongly says CH records no PSC, so it is flagged for cleanup. absence_prose: removed the incorrect sentence claiming Companies House records no PSC for this company. Added References row ch-wmggv-psc; refreshed ch-wmggv accessed date; summary rewritten to name the owner. No Meta or Images section.. This is the current version.
