Soft salad

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This article is about a non-notable snack product. Earlier PROD was contested by the author, saying that there is "a precedent of a large collection of snack food articles on Wikipedia", which is an WP:OTHERSTUFF argument, and this is in no way comparable to well-known Japanese snack brands such as Pocky or Umaibō, which clearly deserve self-standing articles. --DAJF (talk) 01:54, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment Actually, why Pocky and Umaibō are more deserving or well known than Soft salad is not immediately obvious to me. I don't think I've tried Umaibō before (I've seen it before), but I've had soft salad and pocky in the past, anecdotally speaking. I haven't reviewed many snack food AFDs, truthfully. --Bxj (talk) 11:33, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. There is simply no evidence provided that this product is notable, even in Japan. Figureofnine (talk) 15:19, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete First article I've ever seen where the source was "Manufacturer's customer support phone conversation". Might be worth a mention in senbei. Mandsford 15:55, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
