Image:Rosslogo.PNG 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on
criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the
Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Do We Really Need This?
"Ross offers brand name clothing, footwear, bedding, furniture, fine jewelry, beauty products, and housewares. All merchandise is 20 - 60% below regular department and specialty store prices." That excerpt is from the history section. Seems really out of place. Should it be deleted? (This unsigned comment posted by
user:Halladay, 1 August 2007 at )
This explains the descriptor " 'off-price' " in the lede, and I would like to restore it to the article, but you may be correct that it does not belong in the history section and I don't know if I can source it. Note [2] cites the official Ross, Inc. FAQ, which don't cover Maybe a trade magazine article. They have listed a phone # for other questions, but such a call I believe would fall under wp:OR.

Yes, we need something like it. The 20% to 60% part comes across more like advertising, but the article should give a general idea of what they sell. "Department store" is extremely vague, and could describe a place like Sears where I can buy a washing machine, gym equipment, automotive tools, a television, mens' clothing, etc. The article does nothing to tell me what Ross really is. I know from TV ads that they sell women's clothing but have no idea whether I could buy a toaster or necktie there. There should be a general statement that covers the types of things that they sell, because if an article is about a store, and there's no indication of what the store sells, then the article says nothing about what the company does.

Ross Stores, Inc. v. Redken Laboratories 810 S.W.2d 741 (Tex 1991)
Mentioned in Distribution Law By Theodore L. Banks 1995
ISBN0735502684
Redken filled a discovery request to learn how Ross was able to sell Redken products, since Ross was not a licensed Redken distributor, and its stores did not have professional beauticians or barbers, and it did not qualify as a resale outlet under Redken distribution agreements. Redken filed a
motion for summary judgment arguing that the only what that Ross could have these products was through a distributor's beach of its contract.

Oppose: What the company itself and affiliated promotional sources and puff pieces call it are not so relevant. What do
WP:independent reliable sources call it? Also, the proposed title is rather promotional in tone – it's more of a slogan than a straightforward proper name. Also, the logo has "Ross" in very large font size with "dress for less" in much smaller font, and the website name is "rossstores.com", and the company name in the footer of the website is "Ross Stores, Inc." Fortune and Bloomberg call it "Ross Stores", and so do the headlines of the company's own press releases. The independent non-promotional sources seem to favor the current title. —
