Fair use rationale for Image:Pathmark logo.png

edit
 

Image:Pathmark logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:09, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

1999 Ahold proposal

edit

Ahold would create four store names??!

It would have been bad to kill of Giant of the Washington, DC area. That store name carries a long history and goodwill.

New York-centric?

edit

This article is rather New York-centric, it seems to me. Pathmark operates as well in Pennsylvania, S. Jersey, and Delaware, but from most of this article, you would have no idea. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.175.88.149 (talk) 15:36, 6 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Possible copy-paste

edit

I tagged this article as a possible copy-paste of [1]. I couldn't positively flag it as a copyvio, but the History section which was added in 2007 looks suspicious and lacks inline refs. It's worth noting that if this is a reverse copyvio, Ref for Business chose to copy only the sections which were added in the April 2007 edit and not the existing "2000s" section. –dlthewave 19:17, 21 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

For what it's worth, the oldest version of the Reference for Business article I could find in the Wayback machine was one from February 13, 2010, and some stuff in that copy is similar to stuff from a December 2009 version of this article.
On the other hand, the Reference for Business page for F. Duane Ackerman appears to have a lot more material than I could find in at least some versions of his Wikipedia page, so it would appear that Reference for Business isn't just another one of those Wikipedia-scraping sites. That article has, according to the Wayback Machine, been on Reference for Business at least as far back as this version from December 2005. Guy Harris (talk) 20:25, 23 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
I've found a few confirmed examples of material copied from Reference for Business, but never the other way around. It's especially telling that it was added to Wikipedia in a single edit with no sources. There seems to be enough circumstantial evidence to justify removal. –dlthewave 20:42, 23 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
