"Needless markup"

[edit]

Why isn't the "nedeless markup" nickname included in the article? It's fairly well-known (reasonably prominent)... AnonMoos (talk) 11:59, 28 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Saks Global Acquisition

[edit]

Hi, I made a noncontroversial edit to update the information about the acquisition by Saks Global. I plan to make similar edits on the Neiman Marcus Group and Bergdorf Goodman pages as well. If anyone has questions, leave me a message or I am happy to discuss it here if necessary. Maddie for Saks (talk) 14:49, 21 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Intro and 2020-present

[edit]

Hi. Please consider the two following edits:

  • Please remove the last words in the Introduction: "the American division of the Hudson's Bay Company." This statement is incorrect, and the sources do not support it.
  • At the end of the History section, in the subsection called "2020-present", please remove the next to the last sentence that states: "In July 2024, Neiman Marcus announced plans to merge with Saks Fifth Avenue in a reported $2.65 billion merger." Now that the acquisition has been completed and that fact is stated in the next sentence, there is no need to include the July announcement that the acquisition will take place in the future. Thanks so much. Maddie for Saks (talk) 14:56, 12 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
Go ahead: I have reviewed these proposed changes and suggest that you go ahead and make the proposed changes to the page. The first issue seems to have already been fixed, but feel free to remove the sentence about the merger plan. Rusalkii (talk) 04:37, 2 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Lengthen Intro and add Awards section

[edit]

Hello again. Thanks Rusalkii for the "go ahead" to implement the edits from the previous request. Below are additional requests to update the page. I would be happy to make the edits if you give permission again.

  • As per the tag suggesting that the Introduction should be expanded, I have added some "important aspects" about Neiman Marcus taken from the rest of the article. I hope the paragraph below adequately fulfills the requirements of the tag, and then after implementation the tag can also be removed. Please replace the Introductory paragraph that is there now with the following:
Neiman Marcus is an American department store chain founded in 1907 in Dallas, Texas by Herbert Marcus, his sister Carrie Marcus Neiman, and her husband Abraham Lincoln Neiman. The company is known for its unique high-end merchandise, including its annual offerings for the holiday season, inclusive of its Fantasy gifts. It was owned by the Neiman Marcus Group from 1987 to 2024, which also included Bergdorf Goodman and the clearance outlet Neiman Marcus Last Call, among others. In 2024 it was acquired by Saks Global. As of 2025 Neiman Marcus had 36 stores throughout the United States. [1]
  • Please create a new section with the heading "Neiman Marcus Awards" below the section "Corporate affairs." Please include the following in the section:
The Neiman Marcus Award for Distinguished Service in the Field of Fashion was established in 1938 and awarded annually until 2016. In November 2022,[2][3] it was announced that the award would return in 2023.[4][5] Two new awards were introduced in 2023: the Neiman Marcus Award for Creative Impact in the Field of Fashion, and Innovation in the Field of Fashion.[6] Past award recipients include: Christian Dior in 1947,[7] Coco Chanel in 1957,[8] Carolina Herrera in 2016[9] and Brunello Cucinelli in 2023.[10]

I added the Awards section. The new lead section should not have references (see: WP:LEADCITE and WP:LEADREL) inline. Please correct and resubmit. RedBaron214 (talk) 23:47, 12 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
Go ahead: I have reviewed these proposed changes and suggest that you go ahead and make the proposed changes to the page. Only for the awards section. unique high-end merchandise is blatantly promotional and it must be revised before you add the new lead.

Thanks for giving the go-ahead AlphaBetaGamma to change the Intro on condition that I change "unique high-end" to something not promotional. Based on the fact that the word "luxury" is used several times within the body of the article to describe Neiman Marcus, and frequently in many reliable sources, I took out the word "unique" to tone down the "promotional" element, and changed "high-end" to "luxury". Here is a short list of reliable sources that call Neiman Marcus a luxury brand:
