Delete for exactly the same reasons as SoBe No_Fear. (and thanks for pointing out that superfluous info in the article on Sprite, by the way, DryGrain.) DS 22:21, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Looks like a good, solid article; I see far worse browsing new pages on any given day. It's filled with plain, useful information about the drink. A little history on the drink would be nice, though; these are popular right now, so probably some people know of more to be said about them. Everyking 22:41, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Plain, not useful. Besides, I think it's a copyright violation to transcribe the ingredient label. DS 00:14, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Delete - it's just a copy of the label, nothing useful here. -- Cyrius|✎ 00:35, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
- OK, say it wasn't just nutritional data, but also a nice history of the drink. Would you still vote delete? I don't see the logic in voting to delete articles just because they aren't yet what they might become. Everyking 00:44, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- I don't see this drink as having much of a history. I don't foresee any interesting stories about its development involving serendipitous combinations or strange roadside vendors. It's a corporate product, they went into the lab, and started mixing stuff together until they found something that would pass a focus group. -- Cyrius|✎ 00:59, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
- It doesn't have to be a good story... What I basically meant was when it was released into the market and its popularity. Everyking 01:25, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Everyking... please, please don't take this the wrong way, but... do you have any affiliation with South Beach? Look, if you know of any interesting info on these drinks, by all means put it in. As it stands, this is just an ineptly-wikified ingredients list. It doesn't have anything like the corporate juggernaut which sprang from Coke, or the mysterious deaths surrounding Red Bull - we might as well have a separate entry for every flavor of Kool-Aid.

- I just don't understand why anyone would want to delete information about a popular drink. What is it about ingredients that makes them off-limits in terms of the info we can provide? It seems to me a good article about a drink should tell what the usual ingredients are. Everyking 02:44, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)

- Redirect this pages and all others of its ilk to a nice central page and remove nutritional labels. - Fennec 02:45, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. I believe the same consensus has already or almost been reached for these articles and another like them, by the VfD of SoBe No Fear? Falcon 14:12, Apr 28, 2004 (UTC)
- Judgment on one article isn't enough to call a consensus on all of them, and besides, SoBe No Fear survived VfD, so I suppose a consensus was not reached after all. Everyking 16:15, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)
