The Aladdin was imploded and rebuilt, reopening around the year 2000, I think. There's no mention of this on the page. I don't know the exact dates... -- ScottJ 00:36, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
Someone suggested this. I see a lot of problems with doing this merge. The main problem is that with the number of changes happening and the fact that the hotel and casino will actually have different owners, keeping all of this in one article could make the situation more confusing. Given that the Aladdin is a landmark and a very well know casino name, it probably is worth leaving two articles. Leave the current article as a snapshot of the landmark name.

The primary owner(ship), from what I understand has an 85% share. There you go, only one article needed. Barrel-rider 05:44, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
This article is too confusing with both hotels here. The film history is confusing on which hotel was in the movies. Also, there are many hotels that are split up into two articles. Binions Horseshoe and Binions Gambling Hall and Saloon are two articles. Also, Barbary Coast Hotel and Casino and Bill's Gambling Hall and Saloon are two articles. Having two well known casinos under the same article creates confusion. The bally and MGM article appear to be uncommon as far as being combined. It would probably be worth considering splitting those as well. The history of the Aladdin and it being demolished and a new one built should constitute an article on it's own. Also, the Aladdin lamp was seen as such a landmark it was preserved and restored and put on display in downtown with the neon museum.
Through confusion or outright vandalization to improve search scores, 60.225.100.179 changed the name of the resort in the opening paragraph to 'Elara'. This is factually incorrect as Elara soley refers to the separately-owned former PH Westgate property (now controlled by Resort Finance Associates/ Centerbridge Partners); under Caesars Entertainment ownership the former Aladdin has retained the Planet Hollywood brand and its operation as a hotel-casino, not a timeshare.
'Elara' as a timeshare, creates a situation where its sales associates may have strong motivation to vandalize the Aladdin/Planet Hollywood page to increase search scores.
60.225.100.179 or another contributor should reverse and resist the confusing changes made 1 December 2012. The Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino (which, as the successor to the early Vegas-gaming business Aladdin, is of historical significance) and the Hilton-branded 'Elara' timeshare property which as of this writing share nothing but physical proximity; the latter does not warrant its own page and is essentially irrelevant to the subject of the Aladdin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.39.218.228 ( talk) 21:43, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
I was wondering what opening date we should put for the resort/casino. Shouldn't it be April 2007 since the Planet Hollywood, the reason people clicked on the article, opened during that time. Why put 1963, by the way, considering that date refers to a totally different casino that doesn't use the same structure, the Tally-Ho? By that logic, should Mandalay Bay's Wiki page read an opening date of 1956 since it stands on the old Hacienda site?

Looks like from Harrah's to E Harmon Ave is controlled by Ceasear's currently. Article has a source from 2009 that is no no longer working which would have been outdated anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8802:2102:A300:F802:D335:84BB:9280 ( talk) 18:15, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
