I saw that there was a need for a temp page for Belk, so I made a stub. The info is basic and fairly well known (at least among those who know about the department store); I did not copy the page that is the source of the previous article's deletion.--Bjeversole 06:18, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Seems to be a discrepancy with the actual number of stores; made a small adjustment.--Bjeversole 06:21, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Not that I expect it not to happen, but did I miss an announcement that confirms the sale of Parisian to Belk has officially closed? Little Rock will be one of the last Parisian locations to open, and there has been grumbling on local web forums ever since the buyout notice. Still, I haven't seen any news of approval from proper regulatory agencies or other necessary clearance of hurdles that would make the changeover a certainty. — ArkansasTraveler 02:04, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I find this department store family tree stuff fascinating. For consistency, I made links of a number of these that obviously don't exist yet in order to get the ones that do. Maybe someone "in the know" will do the articles. Luxomni 13:29, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Did it happen?

I am eager to find out if the controversial "Silent Kids" incident occurred as shown on the page. I am suspicious for two reasons:

  • The group's name is a red link, meaning there is no page for it. That does not necessarily show that no such organization exists, but I hadn't heard of it and have no way to find out more details from Wikipedia.
  • There is no mention of a year for the incident or the location of the Edgewater Mall.

For those reasons, the section has been marked. I call on the editor (Bjeversole?) to flesh out more details and provide a source. - Desmond Hobson 23:47, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Edgewater Mall is located in Biloxi Mississippi. The suspects in questions were NOT members of the "Silent Kids" organization. While this event did take place, the suspects were just local citizens trying to speak their mind.

Has anyone considered that perhaps there was more to this whole scandal than just the placing of stickers? Was there any vandalism done in the process?
