[edit] Brown sauce redirect?

Why does brown sauce redirect here? Can we create a separate brown sauce article, detailing the ingredients common to all brands? -- Martpol, 21 Mar 2005

  • Definately. Brown sauce needs an article, and this can refer to it. Failing all else, this should be renamed Brown Sauce and HP sauce become a redirect. Let that be a terrible warning to spur creative condiment-writers on. Skittle 23:21, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sang what?

The article currently reads in part:

For many years the description on the label was in both English and French . During a 1960s BBC radio broadcast Marty Feldman sang the French version in the style of Jacques Brel.

Sang the french version of... the label? That can't be right. What does that mean? — mendel ☎ 19:59, August 16, 2005 (UTC)

He sang the French version of the description on the label. Andy Mabbett 21:28, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

I've just reverted back to a previous version as the page was vandalised.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:HP sauce.jpg

Image:HP sauce.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Someone please take a photo of the factory before it is too late

 It is requested that a photograph or photographs of HP Foods factory in Aston, Birmingham be included in this article to improve its quality.
The Free Image Search Tool (FIST) may be able to locate suitable images on Flickr and other web sites.

Is it too late already? --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 21:01, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Turns out it is too late

The only option now is persuade someone who took a photograph to donate it to the commons (see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission) --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 07:12, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Not true - now that a 'free' version cannot be created, we can use any old picture of it and claim fair use. Even the restrictive wikipedia image policy allows this. Modest Genius talk 16:22, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
