What about Burberry's role in Chav culture?
Someone keep removing material from the article about the the boycott of Burberry. The material is properly sourced to newsmedia. Someone said it's irrelevant. I added newsmedia source to show it is relevant. He also said that the website is not npov. I agree so I removed it. Someone else said that the material is NPOV. The material only say that Burberry is the target of an international boycott. I think NPOV would be saying the boycott is justified/not justified. The material doesn't say that, it only say that the boycott exist. It would be great if a moderator could look at it and say if it's NPOV or not. I think someone wants to hide the boycott because they they don't like it or because they like Burberry too much.
"As a luxury brand, there will be occasions where the use of fur will be considered important to the design and aesthetics of a product," said Laura Cummings, director of Brunswick Group press relations, which represents Burberry.
"In those circumstances, (Burberry) will continue to use fur," she said. [1]
Jonemerson I was typing as you did :) The boycott isn't a "4 person" boycott as you say. Peta is very large organization with almost a million member and Burberry will be hurt very badly by the boycott. But it's just speculation and if everyone think it's not good I won't add it anymore. Jean-Philippe 22:17, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Oh, I think the protests and boycotts are very relevant. It's not like putting them in there accuses Burberrys of anything, it's international news and should be included. GingerGin 00:18, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
I think the campaign is persistent enough by now to be included, so I've tried to describe it in a way neutral enough to satisfy previous opponents. SeL 11:25, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
There's no mention of the PETA thing in the article. This is what is known as a glaring ommission. Come on, people. -- 24.21.148.212 ( talk) 20:36, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
The phrase "The value of a luxury bag that is made of plastic and made in China, is now in question. Many customers have refused to pay $500 for a bag that cost $25 to make" seems a bit weasel-like. First off, who's "many customers"? The citation present contains no quotes to that effect. In addition, a fairly thorough search of the Burberry web site reveals most of the bags are billed as "made in Italy" with less than ten (that I can find) labelled "imported" - presumably a code word for "Made in China", though that's rather difficult to determine. The other articles that mention the closing of this factory talk about how it made polo shirts, not bags, so that's slightly confusing as well. Ckalinwi 03:24, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
intro indicates "There are two other ways to refer to the trademark; one is Burberry and the other is Burberrys." what is third (or, actually, what is first if there are "two other"?)-- 71.183.238.134 ( talk) 10:32, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Is such a long list really necessary? It was removed [3] by Crocodile Punter who gave a reason why he removed it. However this was reverted [4] (even removed before this) and I can't find any discussion about this, or any reasons how this list is relevant for wikipedia or appropriate for the otherwise relatively short article. I think the list is excessive.
If anyone needs to know where to find a Burberry store, there's the Burberry store locator on www.burberry.com which also includes the addresses of the stores(and thus more useful). At the end of the article, there's a link to the Burberry web site and I assume that anyone who wants to find out more about Burberry (including the location of one or more stores) would have a look on the web site as well.
I think it would be more appropriate either to remove the entire list, just to list the stores per country or to write a text about their geographic distribution(if that's the right phrase)-- YoungWee ( talk) 15:12, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
The article is seriously out of date, e.g. the Prorsum and Brit sub-brands no longer exist. -- Colapeninsula ( talk) 12:38, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
