Talk:Fort Payne, Alabama

message: This looks a lot like a self-promotion of a family business. It has already been tagged for lack of sources.  I want to give the editor time to come up with some sources, and to make an argument here for the importance of the section.  I suggest the person who put this in read the following:
* WP:NOTADVERTISING
* WP:PRIMARY (info on the kinds of sources you need - I would look for a news story on the store)
* WP:CHEAT for a quick lesson on how to do links and stuff
And now I'm gonna shut up before I violate WP:BITE. Audemus Defendere (talk) 20:03, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Local" section 

message: I didn't want to take out someone else's language, even if a little awkward. But, neither do I object to the deletion.  It's been a long time since Opal, and longer since the one before that.  Maybe some mention of the '93 blizzard? Audemus Defendere (talk) 20:49, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hurricanes 

message: After having a few days to think about it, the section needs to be largely removed.  It is about a single-store retail business, and therefore has issues with both WP:NOTADVERTISING and WP:NOTE.  I did find a single Wiki quality source naming it as the largest furniture store in Alabama, adn it appears to possibly merit a passing reference in the article.  The family history, and that of the store, does not meet WP:NOTE standards.  As I added a "local attractions" section, I gave the store a sourced reference there, and a link.  (dang Wiki isn't picking up my virgules!!) Audemus Defendere (talk) 20:46, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
