[edit] Mead

This stub is little more than an advertisement for the Mead Corporation. Lord Charlton 06:59, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

It wasn't when I started the thing! (I'm a little nostalgic; this was my first page creation, trivial as it is.) It's also at least factually misleading, since the interlocking ring half scheme described goes back at least as far as I can remember looking at ring binders and 20 years isn't very "recent." Looking at the history, Vsoulremix added the Tru-Lock and Mead stuff on the 18 August 2006 revision, breaking the original one paragraph stub in two to insert that, and added things about covers. I'm going to do some slash-and-burn editing on this and see what happens; post a second opinion, okay? Wyvern 09:30, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
PS, could someone please add a good explanation of the lever arch system? Or even a bad one? Wyvern 10:07, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sheet lifter

Wouldn't mind a bit of info on this - those black plastic things that come in a binder are called sheet lifters and I guess they're supposed to help prevent page tearing. Any one know any more? --198.82.22.197 20:41, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chinese Translation

Is that page really about ring binders, or a machine?

[edit] US then ROW?

Should this "The most common type in the United States is a three ring system for letter size pages (8½ × 11 in), whereas most other countries use a two or four hole system for holding A4 sheets." be something like "Most countries use a two or four hole system for holding A4 sheets although in the United States a three ring system for letter size pages (8½ × 11 in), is most common."? 137.44.1.200 23:08, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
