Brown Bailout[edit]

I'm amazed that no mention is made in this article of the UPS lobbying to create the "Brown Bailout," intended as a way to cripple rival FedEx and direct government monies to the coffers of UPS. Could someone please include a paragraph about this? 99.93.240.124 (talk) 12:34, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why not find sources and add it yourself?DonIago (talk) 15:31, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Massive gap on the 'Trains' sub-heading before the end of the text for that sub-heading should be removed[edit]

In my opinion, the massive gap on the 'Trains' sub-heading on the 'Transportation' section before the end of the text for that sub-heading should be removed as it looks strange in my opinion to have such a big gap. Xboxsponge15 (talk) 09:08, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Extra blank lines have been removed. --David Biddulph (talk) 22:45, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nightline[edit]

Why is there no nightline wiki they still operate as a separate company with contract ties with UPS but is not owned by UPS. I can confirm this as i live near a depot and still see nightline vans as well as UPS SharkiePaws96 (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Disregard what i just said but they’re are still operating as nightline with in ROI SharkiePaws96 (talk) 08:23, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The years '2020' and '2021' are misaligned in the table under the 'Finances' tab[edit]

The years 2020 and 2021 are misaligned compared to the other years in the table under the 'Finances' tab. This makes the table look unprofessional in my opinion. Xboxsponge15 (talk) 16:55, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

They're misaligned because they're cited while the other years are not. I would be reluctant to make any changes without the input of other editors, but some options that come to mind are moving the citations to their own column and/or deleting the unreferenced figures.

Requested move 17 July 2023[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. yeah this isn't happening. It's SNOWing like crazy (non-admin closure) InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 03:18, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]


– I'm surprised that UPS still leads to a disambiguation page. According to page views, as of the last 30 days of writing, the United Parcel Service's article has just under 49,000 views. Everything else listed at UPS not related to the courier does not come close to denying the courier a supermajority. I believe that it's time we either move United Parcel ServicetoUPS as it is clearly the WP:PRIMARY topic (even without factoring in the looming Teamsters strike), or alternatively making UPS by default redirect to United Parcel Service. Either option works for me, though if I had to choose, I would prefer the former. InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 20:54, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
