Packet Corned Beef

No evidence that this product meets notability criteria for inclusion; searches for sources turned up the spice packet that comes in packaged corned beef. Borderline A10 with corned beef. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 16:36, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP Very good and informative article. Must be kept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bravo Plantation (talk • contribs)
Good and informative? It's three sentences telling you that you can eat it on a sandwich. Unable to verify its notability as a stand alone product packaging system using reliable sources, Delete. Dennis Brown (talk) 16:43, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed a personal attack that had absolutely nothing to do with whether or not this article should be deleted, in accordance with WP:TPG. All further comments of such a nature will be similarly removed. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 17:04, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Very short unsourced stub, it is factually inaccurate and WP:OR. Maybe the author is confusing it with something else? I had a quick look on the Asda and Tesco websites too, but couldn't see the product listed. Sionk (talk) 17:09, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, here is a link - http://groceries.asda.com/asda-estore/search/searchcontainer.jsp?trailSize=1&searchString=Corned+Beef&domainName=Products&headerVersion=v1&_requestid=38843 Bravo Plantation (talk) 17:36, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The only problem is that it doesn't really matter if the item actually exists or not. What matters is that you can prove that the food item is notable enough to warrant its own entry. That it exists and is packaged differently than other corned beef products and sliced does not in itself show any sort of notability. To be honest, it's very hard to show notability for the different formats/packaging of foods and that's because they lack reliable sources. Sliced bread is one of the very few I'm aware of on Wikipedia and I encourage you to check the page out. The type of sources at the bottom are what you'd need to show notability for this page.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 19:25, 10 February 2012 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]
