The result was delete. I redirected this at first, but on second thoughts the term isn't really close enough to the name of this 'Vitaminwater' product to serve as a useful redirect, it would apply equally well to something like Berocca, so I'm just deleting. Flowerparty ☀ 01:15, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Vitamin drink

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Seems too much like an advert, difficult to imagine being able to rescue this. Oscarthecat (talk) 22:26, 1 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. This isn't an article on vitamin drinks. It's a badly written article on the Vitaminwater product, which is described badly at Energy Brands. There's some potential for an article at the redirect Vitaminwater, but none of this text is likely to be useful there - it's far too advertorial. Zetawoof(&zeta;) 23:42, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy Redirect - there are already 4 permutations of this, all of which redir to Energy Brands.  I strongly dislike multiple unlikely spelling / caps / spacing redirects, but others will argue that a redirect in this case is better than a blank page which leaves people open to re-creating this problem again.      7   talk   04:20, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Others: (not counting Glaceau and it's permutations)
 * Vitamin water
 * Vitamin Water
 * Vitaminwater
 * Vitaminenergy
 * No reason why this should be any different.     7   talk   04:25, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Has "Vitamin Drink" ever been used as a trade name for Vitaminwater, though? I'm not opposed to redirects in principle, but a redirect from a generic term to a specific product smacks of bias. Zetawoof(&zeta;) 05:35, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Googling that terms shows the Glaceau website as the second link here. I am sure it's not trademarked (probably can't be) but may be used for it.  Believe me, I agree about redirects.  If this is deleted then great.  I just suspect we'll all be back here in a few days/weeks having the same coversation.    7   talk   06:03, 2 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Redirect per that being the appropriate course of action. ChildofMidnight (talk) 19:23, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
