Awesome additions but I have been watching this close and have removed some redlinks but now it's sort of turning towards some giant ad. I'm going to add a <pov> tag and see if someone can clear this up. Binarypower 05:39, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
What happened to the content that I added?! MrPeabodyEnergy 02:44, 07 August 2006 (UTC)
- The article was contaminated with copyright-infringing information by 199.217.207.70 (talk ยท contribs). Content in Wikipedia must be licenced under the GFDL; this was just a cut'and'paste from the company's website. It's okay to add information based on Peabody's website (although it's best to check facts from an independent source too, as the subject of an article will inevitably only say nice things about themselves), but not to copy text or pictures from there. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 21:25, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
How is it that this article perports to offer the history of Peabody Coal company and yet has no mention of the dozens of times that Peabody Coal has used it's money and power to oppress it's own workers and stamp out dissent?
The word strike does not appear once on the page, and yet the history of Peabody Coal is a history of labor conflict and strike breaking. Is this the result of a company managing the telling of it's own history? And while there is a reference to the song Paradise, there is zero critical analysis of why "Mr. Peabody's coal train hauled it away."
How does one put the little flag that says this is debated information? Or reads like an advertisement? --Rico 02:07, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
