[edit] Apple drops

Apple drops (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Nonnotable candy. I found 1500 ghits for <"apple drops" candy -wikipedia>, and at least half of those were unrelated to the subject. Admittedly, the candy was popular before the Internet age and has ceased to be significant. But isn't that the whole point? Those of you who vote "keep" should defend that vote by cleaning up the unverified parts of the article. I'm not sure it's worth the effort. YechielMan 07:30, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

  • This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 14:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Your search would fare better if you remember that in the U.K. they are called "sweets", specifically in this case "boiled sweets", not "candies". Have a newspaper article. Uncle G 16:12, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and improve; as per Uncle G, googling "apple drops sweets" holds up. Krimpet 16:45, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete as unreferenced Article is entirely unreferenced. Per above, there might be valid published references available, but they need to appear in the article, so delete unless suitable references are added. If that is cleaned up, I'll reconsider my recommendation. Dugwiki 23:04, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep but shouldn't the title be apple drop per WP:MOS- Gilliam 23:09, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Uncle G. 1ne 20:56, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Uncle G, this was a question of unverifiable versus unverified and apparently it is just the latter, which has been resolved through the course of this discussion. (jarbarf) 18:35, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
