The result was delete, but since a partial merge to List of cocktails has taken place, a redirect seems to be in order instead. Sandstein 22:38, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Ogre Juice

 * — (View AfD)

Non-notable cocktail, entirely unsourced. Even if a reference were found for the recipe, WP:NOT a recipe book. The article indicates that the term is used in parts of Southern Ontario, and claims that the drink requires a particular brand of beer. This suggests very limited regional interest and probable severe WP:V issues. Quale 07:06, 12 December 2006 (UTC)


 * KEEP - for now at least. I agree that this article is in need of improvement. However, whomever prodded this page for deletion apparently did not read the notice on the talk page that states the entire series of cocktail-related articles are undergoing evaluation, improvement, and/or merging of useful information into other articles. Prematurely deleting pages while the WikiProject Cocktails is still working on them severely hinders our progress. If deleted, it requires us to request the deleted information back from an administrator so that we can cull the useful bits out of the original article. Once the project is finished with this cleanup, we will be nominating many articles for deletion. If we cannot find more information to improve this article, it probably will be one that will be deleted at that time. Thanks. --Willscrlt 11:14, 11 December 2006 (UTC)


 * A quick search of Ogre Juice does turn up a few hits in places outside of Ontario. It was probably an Ontario native who posted that statement who did not want to take the time to do the necessary research. Instead of nominating cocktail articles for deletion (the easy way out), why not consider joining the WikiProject Cocktails and help us improve the entire collection? Just a thought. :-) --Willscrlt 08:16, 12 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Strong Delete - Thank you for waiting until I had a chance to pull the useful information out of the article and merge it into the List of cocktails. I now change my vote, since the only remaining unique information is largely regional (and a very small region at that) in nature and unreferenced. The "good" stuff (though with this particular drink, that appears to be a matter of taste and opinion) has been saved. --Willscrlt 14:58, 12 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete - per Willscrlt and for the fact that the article doesn't offer a lot of information or any sources or references. Jayden54 13:32, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
