Talk:Shoe Show

Untitled

I am the Director of Visual Merchandising/Marketing for SHOE SHOW, INC. I am proposing that the "Shoe Show" page be moved to reflect the proper name of the company, which is SHOE SHOW, INC. Once moved, this will create a redirect from "Shoe Show" to the correct page.

I am also proposing the divisions within SHOE SHOW, INC. be updated to the correct usage (i.e. "the Shoe Department" should be "SHOE DEPT.", "Shoe Department Encore" should be "SHOE DEPT. ENCORE".) We are not located in Kannapolis, we are located in Concord, NC. The website is www.shoeshow.com. Our SHOEBILEE division was left off of the division list.

I attempted to make these changes last week; however, I noticed they were reverted. Vickiayers (talk) 19:37, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Vicki Ayers

• First of all, thanks for bringing the issues here. It's generally not considered a good idea to edit an article about a company you work for. It's better to ask other editors to help you, as you did here, to avoid WP:COI. Also, per WP:COMMONNAME, we don't include things like "Inc." in article names. Instead, articles go with the most commonly used name by the general public. For example, the article on J.C. Penney is at "J.C. Penney", not "J.C. Penney Company, Inc.", although the latter name is used in the intro. I've made the other corrections that you've suggested.
