Fair use rationale for Image:Eno-fruit-salt.jpg
Image:Eno-fruit-salt.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Additions
Maybe the article should go into what comprises Eno, what it does, how it does it, etc. The article is pretty barebones, I will try to add some more information to it overtime. --Elven6 (talk) 17:44, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm Canadian and they use to sell it here. I don't know if they still do in stores, but they did and I see Canadian online drugstores offering it now. It's sold in the UK and in Australia, even an official website from the Aussie region of the manufacturer. There's French and Spanish version of ads on YouTube (I'm not sure if the French version is for France [French] or Quebec [French]).

I have a question. I vaguely recall a story as a kid -- maybe a movie scene -- of someone giving Alka Seltzers tablets to birds (pigeons) causing the contents of their stomach to react to the tablets and killing them (blowing them up from the inside). Nothing on the Alka Seltzer entry here, but if someone chewed one of these antacids, would it kill them? Thank you in advance.

I live in Canada as well, I've seen it in general stores, import shops, etc, not sure if it's sold on a official level though. Not sure on th birds story although if there was even a hint of that happening I'm sure it would have been recalled or more widely known given the long history of the substance. --Elven6 (talk) 19:05, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Old ads online
YouTube has some great Eno ads available for viewing.

This one is soooo catchy, it sticks in your head for a long time; or, at least, it did for me!

There's a direct link to YT ads for the AYDS appetite suppressant ("diet candy") section.

UK Availability
I think the information currently in the article is wrong or out of date. I have a bottle of Eno right here with an expiry date of October 2013, and it is easily available at small grocery stores run by Sri Lankans. I know about this as my father is crazy about the stuff. jason404 (talk) 20:49, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

The picture is too large. It looks like an advertisment. I make it smaller. - Pernambuco 22:51, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
