Du Maurier (cigarettes)
Unencyclopedic; most text not really about Du Maurier Cigarettes anyway BeteNoir 23:39, 7 November 2005 (UTC). To clarify: I call this unencyclopedic because Wikipedia is not a directory of brand names. Articles must concern notable topics. BeteNoir 02:38, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. There are articles on several brands of cigarettes (Silk Cut, Superkings etc.); I do not see a difference between these brands and Du Maurier. I have re-written the article to try to make it more encyclopedic. Sliggy 01:46, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I see no reason why this is unencyclopedic. Maxistheman 01:48, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. It may be breif, but it is still informative and encyclopedic. Tuckerekcut 02:56, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

 * There's a whole category of Category:Cigarette brands; if those are encyclopedic enough, then so is this one. Keep, or establish policy against articles on cigarette brands. (I'd actually favour the latter, but in the absence of such a policy there's really no legitimate reason for this to be treated as somehow less notable than other brands.)
