Page Critique

The lead section is direct and to the point without adding unnecessary information. The structure of the article is fair, but could be improved. The majority of the page refers to the history of the company and how it rose to popularity. It could use more information in the "Products" section, giving more examples of the products and services that Warby Parker has to offer. It would be useful to add more images and store location information as well. This article lacks detail, and could seriously use some updating and fleshing out in order to make it more balanced.

Hello. Such details should be supported by reliable, independent sources, to prevent the article from being misused for promotion (see WP:SOAP). Lists of store locations are only rarely appropriate for articles, because Wikipedia is specifically not a directory (WP:NOTDIRECTORY). I recently removed a large quantity of overly-promotional puff from the article, although it still has problems, so I would like to stick to independent (such as WP:SECONDARY) sources to determine which details should be included. I'm concerned that without such sources, the article could revert to being too spammy again. See also WP:RS and WP:NPOV.
If you are near a store outlet and can take a picture, that would be very helpful. Wikipedia:Uploading images explains the details. Thanks. Grayfell (talk) 04:12, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
