Fair use rationale for Image:Fedmart.jpg

[edit]

Image:Fedmart.jpg 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 this Wikipedia article 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. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Hypermarket and Bankruptcy sections

[edit]

I think the Hypermarket and Bankruptcy sections of the FedMart article ought to be removed. Much of it is apparently the personal testimony of a former employee. I modified the previous section to include a sentence about the company's takeover by Hugo Mann and its subsequent bankruptcy.

Is it OK to remove these sections?

I removed the Hypermarket and Bankruptcy sections.

FedMart in Yuma, AZ

[edit]

There was a FedMart -- Fed Mart ? -- in Yuma, AZ, that operated for many years after the FedMart chain was dissolved in 1982.

The one thing I remember was how the store name appeared on paper bags and a few other items. It appeared as --

FEDMART OF CANADA

with the "OF CANADA" in smaller print.

Does anyone have any info on this?

Was this store 'related' in any way to the San Diego-based chain?

If there is a relationship, how 'bout mentioning it in the entry/article? 2600:8800:787:F500:C23F:D5FF:FEC5:89B6 (talk) 17:34, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Just to add to this existing comment; I saw a note elsewhere that Fedmart had closed in 1982, and started looking for info. I grew up in Yuma and clearly remember my family shopping there until at least 1986. It was located at the corner of 16th St and 1st Ave, and there was also a Jack in the Box nearby/sharing the Fedmart parking lot. Once this version of Fedmart finally shut down in Yuma, a Staples was opened at the location. Both the Staples and Jack in the Box remain at this location today. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LW7777 (talkcontribs) 04:06, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
