[edit] Clean-up

I cleaned up the last version of the page. It read like a directory entry in a local "Sights to See" type of publication in a travel book. --Impaciente 16:43, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

There were a few factual errors which I corrected. Buffum's was a the other anchor that opened with center. Also the center opened in August 1967 one month after South Coast Plaza. Bullock's Wilshire was the original tenant in the location where Macy's is now and was replaced by an I. Magnin. --User:rjlawrencejr

[edit] Listing of stores

Perhaps someone from the area could include a complete listing of stores at the Fashion Island. President Rhapsody 23:03, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

This would require unending updates. The linked official web page is a better place for this information to be found. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.131.134.162 (talk) 00:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] neutral POV

parts of this article, especially the first paragraph, have some harsh statements with no sources. "Fascist Island," "elitist," "pretentious." It seems that whoever was writing those sentences really had something against the Fashion island. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.127.32.172 (talk) 19:05, 10 December 2006 (UTC).

"Neutralized." :) The "Fascist Island" label is usually applied with humor, and I have changed the text to reflect this. I also changed "pretentious" to "large." Suggest removal of (bias) unless someone has other issues. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.131.134.162 (talk) 00:27, 10 January 2007 (UTC).

Doesn't really seem to be that special to me. A mall's a mall. I don't see what all the fuss is about.

Calling it a lifestyle center doesn't exactly seem neutral to me. If you eve been there...it's just a mall. I'm changing it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.243.65.187 (talk) 03:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
