Talk:84 Lumber

Name? edit

Why is the company named "84 Lumber"? As a kid, I vaguely remembered the closest one to us opening up around the mid-1980s, so I always assumed that the company had been founded in 1984. But, I now know that's not the case... any ideas?

It's headquartered in Eighty-Four Pennsylvania.

Eighty-Four Pennsylvania is located about 20 minutes east of Pittsburgh.

Not only is 84 Lumber named after the town but about 60 percent of the local businesses are named after it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.196.162.166 (talk) 23:31, 21 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:84L.PNG edit

 

Image:84L.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand (talkcontribsBot) 04:08, 26 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Complete article appears to be an advertisement. It's introduction cites a non-existent wikipedia article. References should be urls that hopefully exist.Woods01 (talk) 01:46, 25 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
