Talk:Switcha

Merge or delete
As of now the subject of this article does not pass notability. One source is supplied that is so vague that it cannot be verified. The other barely mentions switcha in passing (not even giving a recipe just the ingredients). Even if better recipes are found without at least two reliable sources discussing the subject in detail (history of it, where the name came from, etc.) then it should not have its own article. Or we could just mention switcha in the lemonade article (where it now mentioned), add a source there, and redirect to that article. SQGibbon (talk) 13:15, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose merge plenty of sources cover this subject. This is a new article so it will likely expand over time. Also, the lemonade article is a mess and should be cleaned up. Candleabracadabra (talk) 13:38, 15 September 2013 (UTC)


 * You added more sources but with one possible exception they still do not go toward establishing notability -- they are just recipes or just mention the drink in passing, i.e., trivial. The one source that does go into detail is pure fluff. The author wanted to find out what makes the drink different from lemonade or at least where the name came from but was unable to do either. Clearly not a reliable source for an in depth discussion on the nature and history of the drink therefore also does not go toward establishing notability. It was just a fluff blog post about travelling in the area.


 * Also, saying that it's a new article and "will likely expand over time" is not sufficient. Being the article's creator it is up to you to establish notability before uploading the article into mainspace. That's why you have a sandbox. Get the article up to Wikipedia standards before putting here and then there will be no discussions like this one. SQGibbon (talk) 15:03, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
