Talk:Powell's Books

message: I removed the "Endorsements" section. It's simply not neutral; NPOV doesn't mean we can't describe other people's opinions of Powell's, but "endorsements" implies a hand-picked list of positive comments, not a balanced discussion of opinions about the store. It's advertising, and the quotes lack context that might make them informative anyway. CDC (talk) 23:59, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Powell's sells DVDs now too, although only online (i.e. all DVDs are stocked only in their Duffman Warehouse).  The "since 2005" assertion in the article is based on looking at Internet Archive and at the Internet Retailer article used to update the inventory size, though all that one can definitely conclude with those sources is that as of April 2005 DVDs were not for sale and by December 2005 they were.  There doesn't appear to have been a press release announcing the availability of DVDs on the Powell's website.  66.167.136.147 12:21, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

message: A mention of the controversy surrounding this businesses' firm opposition to the now-successful efforts at organizing its labor force needs to be added. I'll be looking for some sources. VanTucky 22:22, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
