...This may not be "proof" -- but it is strong evidence for the fact that the plural form is far less common.

This phrase is increasingly being used incorrectly, deviating from the original sense once common in the publishing, advertising, and film production industries. The term "values" is NOT referring to "value" in the sense of values -- "a collection of guiding principles" or "mores."

Of your two links, the plural has twice as many results. And we're not laying down rules about what is "correct" but documenting the language as it's actually used. Equinox ◑ 20:58, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

It has been over 10 months, and these 2 articles (dictionary entries) still contradict each other. They can't BOTH be right... (right?) --Mike Schwartz 22:18, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
