Unsourced statements?
editThis article is said to have unsourced statements. How can we take care of that if we don't know what's unsourced? We need "Citation Needed" tags in order to fix this. Savie Kumara 05:52, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
- That wasn't me, but I thought that Tonya did her skating at Clackamas Town Center (the rink there has since been removed). Jason McHuff 10:47, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
- She did do her skating at Clackamas Town Center but she first skated at the Lloyd Center when she was 3 according to https://www.oregonlive.com/portland/2014/09/lloyd_center_ice_rink_will_be.html 204.131.40.235 (talk) 15:19, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Well, I've looked through the page history, and it appears the piece comes from the Lloyd center article, here. Also, the date of the Toys R Us closing was changed from 2001 to 2004 here. Jason McHuff 11:22, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
Removal of Toys R Us
editYes, it is not sourced, but that is the same for all the anchors/former anchors. So, why remove just that one? Why not tag it? Am I missing something? Aboutmovies (talk) 21:22, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
Free speech court case????
editBecause of Lloyd Center's size and importance, it has played a significant role in the history of freedom of speech in the United States, especially with regard to the scope of free speech within private shopping centers. Lloyd Center was the defendant in the landmark cases of Lloyd Corp. v. Tanner, 407 U.S. 551 (1972), a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court involving First Amendment rights and private property, and Lloyd Corp. v. Whiffen, 307 Or. 674, 773 P.2d 1293 (1989), a decision of the Oregon Supreme Court.
What the heck was this about? Could we please elaborate on this? It sounds important. What happened? --67.189.16.236 (talk) 00:50, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
- You can read a summary of the case here or the U.S. Supreme Court case here. But a really basic synopsis: Vietnam War protesters tried to distribute anti-war fliers and were asked to leave the privately owned mall. They then sued on Free Speech grounds and the case worked its way to the U.S. Supreme Court where the court said they could not pass out the fliers as it was not a public forum (thus no Free Speech), distinguishing the case from some earlier precedents.

Open-air
editI may not have read the article thoroughly enough, but it seems to imply that the mall is still open-air (although the photo somewhat contradicts that). It is mostly covered now with a partially glass and conventional roof, except that the exterior stores (e.g. Dollar Tree) are free-standing buildings. 4.242.108.189 (talk) 04:50, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
