Whassup?

This article is filled with unverified claims about some commerical. It is not notable either. Much of the article is just a collection of random facts. Edward130603 (talk) 19:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I agree that the article is a sorry mess and should be heavily refurbished. And I must admit that for once my vote (yes, I know, it's not actually a vote) is not perfectly acceptable by WP policy. The reason I'd be inclined to keep the article is that, as an Italian who does not follow US television, even less football, nor especially into American beers, even so I know about this commercial, and about its 2008 version. So, in an unofficial, unprovable way, I feel it to be somewhat notable. Goochelaar (talk) 21:31, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Article probably needs some cleanup, but this is, arguably, one of the best-known American TV commercials of all time. Sources are trivially easy to find: [1], [2] Zagalejo^^^ 23:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Zagalejo. This was not just "some commercial" as the nom states, it was a very famous and highly influencial commercial. Rlendog (talk) 21:12, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
