The result was   delete at author's request. I've also userfied the "replacement" article on the off-chance that some sources can be found. Articles that say "x item may have existed, we can't be sure" are liable to deletion, this being an encyclopedia and everything. ➨ ❝ ЯEDVERS ❞ has nothing to declare except his jeans 13:26, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not the place for something you think you might remember something about but aren't quite sure. Ros0709 (talk) 20:38, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete The article as it stands seems to contain no verifiable information whatsoever ("It is thought they were introduced in the 1970s"... "it is unclear as to how many flavours were also produced" etc) and Google thinks that Smiths Twisters (or "Smith's Twisters") was actually a brand of alloy wheels, so maybe not even the name is correct. I suggest that the creator look for some reliable sources and tries again once he's sure of his facts. Iain99Balderdash and piffle 20:47, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete' this twisted article (I'm starting to sound like Mandsford). No reliable sources, and a writer who's probably pulling facts out of his @$$. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 20:57, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete why do we need to know about chips from the 70's? CRocka05 (talk) 22:07, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: I suggest that this article might be redirected to The Smith's Snackfood Company. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:13, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * That works - or Twisties might be better still - maybe it's what the creator was thinking of. Iain99Balderdash and piffle 22:30, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not so sure. It appears the article name isn't even right - or maybe it is and we'd redirect to the wrong page. Who knows? Ros0709 (talk) 23:03, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Obviously delete per nom. --Anna Lincoln (talk) 09:36, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * What pathetic subjective sounding comments from uninterested users. This article needs to stay on for others who are interested to see it and hopefully add / edit it. Im after objective constructive critiscism / help - not negative rubbish. If your not interested in crisps then look elsewhere (somewhere I probably wouldn't be interested). I do know what I'm on about (as I used to eat them as a child) although a couple of facts may / may not be correct. There is currently seems to be no info on these over the internet at the moment which is why I have made this page. The only way to correct them and improve the article would be: i. for me to try and research some more info (this could take time) and ii. for constructive users to add to it if they have ay info. Without this page there will be little chance to ever find out the truth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hulk77 (talk • contribs) 12:24, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Due to further research a new article has been made under Twisters Crisps for Wikipedia to deem appropriate or otherwise. The author requests this older article is removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hulk77 (talk • contribs) 13:18, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
