Astroturf
This article looks like it's been gone over by the Weber PR people. Can it be toned down a bit? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.31.206.146 (talk) 03:24, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Buoys cut in half?
If the factory was already producing buoys from half-spheres, why cut them in half? Can we assume that the half-spheres were used for the new barbecue grills before being welded together? Sloppy story-telling, possibly? 86.139.42.39 (talk) 12:50, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

GA failed
the article needs massive expansion. the lead is very brief. the section namely today is also stub section. thanks, Sushant gupta (talk) 17:03, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Sputnik
The article as it stands suggests the following timeline: invention > "neighbours" calling it Sputnik > commercialisation in 1952. No one could have made the reference to Sputnik 1 as it was yet to surprise everyone 5 years in the future. The reference provided is to Weber's own site, so should be taken with a hearty grain of salt. I suggest removing this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.170.230.20 (talk) 13:08, 26 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Eight years late to fix this, but you're right. I've adjusted the sentence, it's location in the history, and added a source from the Smithsonian. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 19:32, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
