There is no section detailing the 1973 breakup.

The breakup happened on January 5th, 1973. The page on Louisiana-Pacific mentions it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThetaDeltaGamma (talkcontribs) 21:41, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

Disconnected phrase

The sentence mentioning the "Crown-Zellerbach" building is without context: The Crown Zellerbach Building was built as the headquarters of Crown Zellerbach in San Francisco in 1959. I'd suggest copying over the text from the building's page: The building was originally the headquarters of the Crown Zellerbach, a Fortune 500 forest products conglomerate acquired by Sir James Goldsmith in a 1985 hostile takeover. The majority of the pulp and paper assets were sold to James River in 1986, which in turn became a part of Georgia-Pacific in 2000. (The brown paper container division became Gaylord Container). May not be the final solution but the only prior reference to Crown Zellerbach is in a phrase mentioning various mergers. 108.204.18.240 (talk) 09:27, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Very inadequate sourcing

WAY too much of this article is unsourced (numerous whole paragraphs with no reference citation), and much other important info is solely sourced from the company's own communications, rather than independent reliable sources.

I've added a handful of citations (particularly in the lede) to New York Times and Wall Street Journal articles, but MUCH more is needed, especially for an enterprise of this size, economic influence, and environmental impact. Zxtxtxz ~ Zxtxtxz (talk) 11:16, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Asbestos

Why is there no mention of asbestos?
