This article was deleted initially with the explanation that it was "advertising". I disagree with the action on the grounds that it is a notable organization in the state of Maine especially for being the largest store in a state of several million people, and is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia.

OK, I vote keep, but can you at least supply some pictures? That would be nice. Also, the article is kinda stubby. --M1ss1ontomars2k4 00:07, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sure thing; just got a picture, and I'll do some research and add to the article. Ben Tibbetts 01:33, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It might be appropriate to merge this article into Windsor, Maine if there isn't enough material to justify an independent article. Ought to exist in one location or the other, though. Mackensen (talk) 01:36, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A good suggestion Mackenson, although I don't think its appropriate in this particular case on account of there's nearly as much information on Hussey's as there is on the entire town of Windsor. Added another picture. Ben Tibbetts 01:49, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I see that. The article is taking shape. It would nice to have more sources (especially if some local newspaper backs up the largest general store claim). Mackensen (talk) 02:02, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. At one of the links though (found here) the information states that Hussey's 'claims' to be the largest in the state, but my research so far is turning up next to nothing as far as newspaper sources. Ben Tibbetts 02:10, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
