[edit] Merge with John Lewis (department store)

I'm recommending that this, and the other John Lewis articles for the individual stores in this chain be merged with the main article. I can't think of any reason to have separate articles for each store. --Bugwit grunt / scribbles 22:53, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

True, but many of the individual stores have a history as independent businesses under other names, which it is important to catalogue for posterity. If John Lewis is compacted into one entry, only the history of the core chain is likely to be preserved and this is by no means the full story - lawsonrob

  • So, having each store with its own section within one root article would not preserve these histories? Having individual articles just seems a little over-the-top to me. --Bugwit grunt / scribbles 23:14, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
