If there's an article about employer/employee relations at the WCS in some media source, such as a newspaper article or broadcast news coverage, that could be included in the page and cited as a reference. Are the employees organized and represented by a union besides the employees' forum on Yahoo!Groups? That could also be included as factual information. -- Deborahjay (talk) 13:11, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removed Content - Needing improved for return

I have removed the following edit from the article and placed it here for further development. This is factual information, yes, but is written as an advertisement with no real information as who and when and what makes it notable, some of which is well described within the source. This could be developed and added back to the article, which is why I am placing it here. I would note care to be taken for a historical tone with respect to the publish date of the source being less than two weeks ago.

  ===Treestar Cannabis Dispensary===
In March 2018, Woodburn's first cannabis dispensary was established.  The dispensary serves both the recreational and medical markets.  The company is focused on supporting small businesses and primarily works with small farmers for sourcing flower.

I repaired the citation for error and added info to it from the source.

Removed Content - Lead Paragraph

I have removed the following from the article:

Those who identify as Hispanic or Latino make up a majority of the population in the city.{{Citation needed|reason=This claim needs a reliable source.|date=February 2021}} The Woodburn area also has a significant historic population of [[Old Believers|Russian Orthodox Old Believers]], whose ancestors settled there after the [[October Revolution]] of 1917.{{Citation needed|reason=This claim needs a reliable source.|date=February 2021}}

The Latino statement is simply not accurate. 2010 Census Woodburn verifies this. The "old believers" is covered later in the article in the appropriate section and is not relevant to the lead-in introduction. Placing this here in order to provide a discussion opportunity should it be needed.
