Should BBY Management Be Included

Management of the Business is general fact, it does not deter from the rest of the content on the article. User LibStar suggests that it should not be included.

no, see Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Lists_of_people. stop editing as if you're working for the company. LibStar (talk) 14:06, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is BRW East Coles Survey Results Notable?

A result in the top 15-20 brokerage houses in BRW'S Annual the Deal Makers Special is by far noteworthy. Those indivduals familar with Australia's financial industry would certainly aggree.

Recent back and forth

I would suggest with respect to the changes that keep being made, reverted and re-made

List of management - I agree with LibStar that the list is really unnecessary here. If you want to add someone that is truly notable to the infobox, I would be supportive but it would need to be value-added to the article
9th Place Ranking - I think this is kind of an odd debate and would side with Zip1010 that it can be included to give context to the article. My first impression is that it is not really great marketing to tout a #9 ranking.

I would note to Zip1010 that, if you are an employee of this company, it is really important that you adhere to the highest standards regarding conflicts in this article. As you are aware, this article is not a vehicle for marketing. |► ϋrбanяeneωaℓ • TALK ◄| 01:10, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think there is consensus to include the 9th place. Wikipedia articles report notable information not minor rankings. LibStar (talk) 11:32, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with User:Urbanrenewal, including the BRW Result provides some context and helps demonstrate the company's notability. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ansonrosew (talk • contribs) 11:53, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While i don't think notability is an issue, I have previously commented that incidental mentions of an analyst report on another company do not themselves demonstrate notability of either the analyst or his or her company. |► ϋrбanяeneωaℓ • TALK ◄| 22:58, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with everything above except that I do think notability of BBY is an issue. the vast majority of these links are just mentions of BBY commenting on something and would not be able to be incorporated into the article. There is a complete lack of sources commenting on BBY. LibStar (talk) 04:56, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
