Champagne powder

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Proposed merge for nearly 2 years, the name for a type of snow which happens to be trademarked, otherwise unimportant. Viridae DON'T PANIC  03:19, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Merge Couldn't find an actual dictionary hit on the term itself on an extensive Google search, but found this definition at About.com. Also, found multiple .com hits (these are just a few) at: 1, a legal controvery from a questionable .com source 2 (something tells me you can't TM the snow name, particularly since "Champagne" is already copyrighted and the "snow type" exists wherever it falls as described above at the About.com link).  Everything is tourist/promo/.com oriented with the exception of the legal aspect that seems improbable to worry over, and the one semi-reliable definition at About.com. Considering the lack of item-specific, reliable non-.com sourcing, & the lack of a separate, universally accepted context for singular usage, it should probably reside with the other "snow types" without regard for an individual listing in article space.

 * Merge The article in Der Spiegel says only that it's a catch-phrase, and while the term should probably mentioned somewhere, it doesn't appear to merit it's own article. a13ean (talk) 18:35, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
