Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Food and drink

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Food and drink. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Food and drink|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Food and drink. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Food and drink

Catch (brand)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Catch seems to be one of the brands of Dharampal Satyapal Group. This article openly contains promotional texts of it that are being presented as an encyclopedic entry, which goes against WP:NOT, particularly WP:NOTADVERT and WP:ADMASQ, ofcourse. Even if we suggest a merge with the company article as a WP:ATD option, it still doesn't make much sense to move promo text from one page to another. A couple of lines about it already exist in the history section. Charlie (talk) 06:44, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The citations presented are OK and will pass notability guidelines. In particular, the articles in The Hindu Business Line, Business Standard, and Financial Express provide significant independent coverage. Yolandagonzales (talk) 06:30, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Irvins

The article only has one sentence and the product does not seem notable enough for its own page. Being mentioned in advertorial-style reliable sources should not be seen as enough for inclusion and likely does not meet WP:NCORP. Aleain (talk) 01:32, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Food and drink and Singapore. Aleain (talk) 01:32, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: I agree with OP. Has five references for two sentences. This article was created in September of 2024, and has had little done in that time. A Google search only lists sites that sell the product, there are no WP:RS I could find. Unfortunately, I think this article requires deletion for these reasons. 11WB (talk) 02:16, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lack of sourcing to demonstrate notability as a product. Fails WP:MILL Andy Dingley (talk) 16:01, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge - into the Monster Beverage article, Monster is a very much a notable company, being part of the Coca-Cola umbrella. Since this is a Coke product, it is notable, but not notable enough for it's own page. ロドリゲス恭子 (talk) 17:00, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If it's still a current Monster brand, then I'd be happy with that. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:18, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It still is, in fact, it's already arrived onto those Freestyle Coca-Cola machines, if you've seen those before. ロドリゲス恭子 (talk) 21:44, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hypothetical merger which was abandoned in 2013, information on it is already in the two separate company's pages so no need for this article Update6 (talk) 05:50, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Food and drink, Companies, and United Kingdom. Shellwood (talk) 09:51, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Could be briefly mentioned in each article about both companies, I don't see much for the company that never was. Sourcing is only about the merger, nothing since. Oaktree b (talk) 15:47, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Only routine news mentions about the proposed merger were found. The subject does not meet notability guidelines, as coverage is limited to transaction announcements which are not sufficient. Yolandagonzales (talk) 11:31, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Mambila Beverages Nigeria Limited

Doesn't look like this company meets WP:NCORP. The sources are all just business listing sites and no in-depth or significant coverage from independent, reliable media. Junbeesh (talk) 08:56, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. There are a few mentions on Google Books, but they're only 1 or 2 sentences each, and several hits are the same source. Bearian (talk) 00:31, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Shifra cheese

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

All seven references are used simultaneously for every section. Verifiability for these claims is questionable. No page numbers are given for any of these books. The two links given are dead and cannot be recovered from the wayback machine.

Furthermore, the citations for the books seem off. For example, there is a Daniel Rogov who writes guides on Israeli wine, and there was a version published in 2005, but the title The Ultimate Guide to Israeli Wines isn't used (there is a The Ultimate Rogov's Guide to Israeli Wines from 2011) and they seem to be published by Toby Press, not Gefen Publishing House. There is also a book called "The New Middle Eastern Vegetarian: Modern Recipes from Veggiestan", but the author is listed as Sally Butcher, not Gil Atlas. I cannot find the Schreiber or Lewin books anywhere. Only the Solomonov and Cook reference has no apparent flaw. If anybody can find a few of these sources (perhaps they're in Hebrew), I'll withdraw this nomination, but as is, the article appears to be built on almost nothing.

Subject fails WP:GNG and WP:PROF. No evidence of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Article is based on sparse and trivial references with no clear demonstration of notability. THE ONE PEOPLE (talk) 18:52, 23 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment WP:NPROF allows for notability of professors who've held a named-professorship, distinguished professorship or the equivalent in an institution/nation/culture where distinguished and named are rarely used. I do not know the Zambian university system. If her professorships are/were the Zambian equivalent of distinguished, we should keep. Elemimele (talk) 12:25, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify Do NOT make "articles" with just seven words, even if listed in some random private organization's rankings. This isn't an "unnecessary deletion nomination" if it means something will actually be written, but this is in no state for mainspace just to state its existence or that it has a ranking.

Comment from the nominator:

I have decided to take the time to review all thirteen sources provided on the article. Below is my opinion on the matter, and I admit I am being lenient on whether Tatler et al. qualifies as RS.

Source	Significant?	Independent?	Reliable?	Secondary?	Pass/Fail	Notes
The key to Jigger & Pony's longevity? "1 per cent improvement a day" says founder Indra Kantono	Y	N	Y	Y	N	Executive interview, not an independent source

50 best bars in Singapore you absolutely must visit	N	Y	N	Y	N	Bar review and listing coverage
Total qualifying sources						0 (only 1 possibly qualifying)

Based on the thirteen publicly available sources, I do not believe Jigger & Pony satisfies WP:SIRS. Frank_{(has DemoCracy DeprivaTion)} 18:46, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
