List of locations edit

In my opinion, the list of locations should stay. I think it is important to note where each of the company's stores were located. While each location is not notable in a national context, it is part of the region's history and certainly the history of the company. I believe the list improves the article, and removing it does not improve its quality. --DangApricot (talk) 17:57, 20 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

You said: "While each location is not notable in a national context". I presume you mean in the context of the company as a whole. In that case, you have just proven my point as to why these locations do not merit inclusion, and that is because they lack notability. I am reverting now.

You sound angry! I didn't mean to anger you. I meant "national context" in the context of American history. The people who wrote these lists should have cited their research, I agree. I guess people who like this historical local history, like me and User:Pubdog, are outnumbered, and I accept defeat :-( . P.S. I was surprised to see the Inclusionist and Local History userboxes on your user page when you are opposed to maintaining lists of these stores, but maybe it's just me. --DangApricot (talk) 20:04, 20 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I dont think this guy understands how important former locations list are. Ive been fighting with this punk for the last few days about keeping former locations lists for Big Bear Stores. Dont accept defeat! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Datrain021 (talkcontribs) 01:44, 23 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
