[edit]

Bachelder's notability is beyond reasonable dispute. Everything here is referenced to reliable sources including the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, etc., and there are at least a dozen other such sources not yet mentioned.[1]

There are no commercial or advertising links here. Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen is a major restaurant chain with well over 2,000 locations and revenues exceeding those of several countries, and Bachelder was the CEO for ten years, as noted in the Popeyes article, which could use an update as Bachelder stepped down when the chain was purchased earlier this year. If anything, the article can and should be significantly expanded, especially as Wikipedia's coverage of prominent women is so shoddy. With some work, this might easily be a featured article.

I agree that the tone is generally positive, but this reflects my personal estimation of Bachelder's performance and the fact that I can't seem to find anything negative to balance it out. She is even on the record as accepting of raises in the minimum wage, in contrast to other fast food executives and corporations which openly campaigned against it.[2] If there's something negative that probably does deserve to be here, it's Bachelder's admittedly failed stint as president of KFC, which she credits as a valuable learning experience.[3]

Thanks to those who have helped to improve the formatting and add relevant categories. I will link Cheryl Bachelder from Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen so that it is no longer "orphaned."South by southwest (talk) 02:47, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The above is so unquestionable that it has stood for nearly 5 years, so I am removing the "notability" tag. 2600:1004:B142:81C7:1120:314C:EF8F:5558 (talk) 00:35, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
