Talk:Wal-Mart employee and labor relations

New article

This article was split from Debates over Wal-Mart. Any history prior to March 26, 2006 can be found in that article, and some material was previously split from the main Wal-Mart article. -- MisterHand 21:36, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

State Legislature Actions

The Wisconsin legislature paragraph is almost entirely a wal-mart response. What was trying to be passed and how would it have affected Wal-Mart and other employers?

1. Shouldn't these paragaphs mention something about what the law was attempting to accomplish, regardless of if it passed or failed.
2. I believe a link to the appropriate piece of legislation on the states web site would be helpful if possible
3. Dates should include years, not just Month / Date.

List of criticisms of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.

I have proposed a major change involving this article, see Talk:Criticism of Wal-Mart#List of criticisms of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. for rationale. Tuxide 17:06, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Splitsection

As per Talk:Wal-Mart workforce diversity. Tuxide 19:04, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

I vote to keep as it is. A court finding has direct application to the question raised in the prior section. It is on topic and on point.--Lepeu1999 18:53, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

My main concern is POV. Since this is one of the many articles on the criticism of Wal-Mart, and since such lawsuits are more events than criticism (and the one in question is class action), I'd hate to represent such lawsuits as if they are criticism instead. Tuxide 03:12, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Merges and splits

I am proposing the merges and splits on this article. Content about class action suits should get their own [[whatever v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.]] articles and have links provided from whatever is considered to be the main Wal-Mart article in this situation. Also, I strongly disagree that this article should exist.

I have marked two of these sections as {{copyedit}} since both sections were lifted directly from [1]. Splitting them as they are would be copyvio. Tuxide 20:36, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

That seems like a good idea. Once the lawsuit info is put into their own articles, then I would recommend taking the remaining content in this article, cleaning it up a bit, and merging it into Wal-Mart employee and labor relations. Dr. Cash 18:17, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Am marking this article as {{inuse}} to do the edits I proposed above and per Derek.cashman. If it's still there in a couple hours, then remove it for I have gone to work. Tuxide 19:34, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

I have done the copyediting and the splitsection that I proposed earlier; however I haven't merged this article yet. I've just added the templates here, and I'll let it float around a while longer. Tuxide 21:24, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

The Wal-Mart workforce diversity article has now been merged into this article. Dr. Cash 00:53, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
