Talk:Scotch Tape

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Removed content

I have removed:

Use of the term 'Scotch' in the name has a rather pejorative origin. Whilst testing, the tape came loose because it was not fully coated with adhesive. A remark was made that the stingy Scotch bosses need to put more adhesive on it - the name has "stuck" ever since.

This type of information/rumor should not be in the article unless it has a reliable source. -SCEhardT 01:07, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

It is pretty much verified by 3M themselves at [1]. Ardric47 00:23, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

I've added it back. Thanks for finding a source! -SCEhardT 02:33, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
