Delete: unremarkable shops do not deserve an article. Badly written. Borderline vanity page. Not encyclopedic. Nova Cygni 14:25, 1 May 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep and rewrite: I agree that the article is poorly written, but PacSun is definitely not an unremarkable shop. It's HUGE in southern California -- one of the "it" places to shop for teenagers -- with a location in almost every mall.  And from what I hear from friends who are attending colleges across the country, people as far away as the east coast like to shop at PacSun to emulate Californian dress.

 * Keep and rewrite. Almost 1000 shops and being traded on Nasdaq looks enough to need an article. Even if the current one is in need of cleanup. -Nabla 2005-07-07 15:06:33 (UTC)
 * Keep, cleanup. Notable. -- BD2412 talk July 7, 2005 15:11 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep: Definitely notable. Needs serious rewrite. —ArmadniGeneral 7 July 2005 16:17 (UTC)
 * Keep simply needs quite a bit of cleaning up to be done. (by User:66.188.1.103
 * keep, just needs a bit of a rewrite. UkPaolo 7 July 2005 21:29 (UTC)
 * I'd say shops aren't notable, but countrywide chains of shops certainly are (e.g. McDonalds is notable, but the franchise on my street is not). Keep. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; July 8, 2005 12:49 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. Nationwide chains of stores are certainly notable. --Idont Havaname 8 July 2005 20:25 (UTC)
 * Keep and rewrite entirely. Much of the text was taken directly from a Business Week article; see Talk:Pacific Sunwear. --Metropolitan90 16:21, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
