Store list: Responded to Q re; lists of former locations
Line 15: Line 15:
What's the point of even listing the old locations? Do any other articles about retail stores list former locations? I think someone looking at this article would be much more interested in knowing current locations. Either way, perhaps we should make two separate lists.

Store list

Hi,

I added to the Virginia list of closed stores in Blacksburg and Christiansburg and Added West Virginia to the list with a store that is operating in Princeton, WV.Outdoors24 05:47, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yikes. That store locations list needs total cleanup. And where the hell was Scottsboro Mall? I can't find any evidence that Scottsboro ever had a mall. TenPoundHammer 04:06, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, since Rose's has no website (at least none that I've found), it's gonna be a pain to figure out which stores are still in business. TenPoundHammer 15:35, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They failed to mention past stores in Morristown, TN and Newport, TN. The Store in Morristown closed almost 4 years ago to make room for Home Depot, while the Newport Store fell victim to the Bankruptcy issue in the early 1990s.

Okay, someone needs to really help here. I'm throwing the Expert tag on. Ten Pound Hammer(((ActionsWords))) 02:23, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Neiman Marcus article has either a list of former locations or a subarticle listing them. However, N-M is both more famous and smaller, so that list is more easily justified. This one is long, boring, and dragging down the article. There might be a shorter way of displaying the list that keeps it from drowning the piece.
