The Barnes & Noble College Bookstores article says they're not affiliated, but this article still says they are. NeonMerlin 19:16, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Largest / Biggest Bookstore

[edit]

I have an issue with any bookstores claim to be the largest/biggest/grandest/etc. I have looked at several articles that make some claims regarding store size, but have not found a single 2nd party reference (see WP:V and WP:CITE); therefore I have pulled the reference from the page. If someone has a list of stores by size, then by all means add it back. In lieu of a true list, anything else seems like advertising. Srice13 04:38, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
