Speedy Deletion Dispute
How in the heck is this considered spam when I created this page, to talk about a company in Wiki fashion. If you condsider this page Spam you should delete all pages that talk about companies, like Auto Zone, Wal-Mart, ETC. Sawblade05 17:14, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Changes
Frankly, this article is a mess. I've cleaned it up quite a bit but it still needs some major work. Wilybadger (talk) 01:52, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
Name Change
Like" Advanced Auto Parts" changing to "Advance Auto parts," O Reilly Auto Parts was once "O'Reily's" For some strange reason, all references to the old names are being removed. I remember my local "O'Reily's, and I remember the "'s." Just as I remember "Advanced Auto Parts." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.59.53.177 (talk) 16:30, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
Mad Men Reference Seems to be For a Fictional Company
The article alleges that O'Reilly was "well known" for hiring discrimination which, having lived in Springfield most of my life I don't doubt, but the linked article refers to an episode of Mad Men which deals with a fictional auto parts store in another state. If Wikipedia has an actual source for racism on behalf of O'Reilly, it should be listed here; it seems borderline libelous to make the accusation here based purely on a fictional company within the same industry with nothing else connected the two. I recommend the line be removed at least until a source can be produced.--2604:2D80:DF8C:5F00:D45:D3A5:CB2A:41F9 (talk) 23:47, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
