I don't think so. The image was taken by someone, who expended effort and used artistic and technical ability. They have the copyright. We'd need their permission. (Which they might give if we could contact them and ask for it.) RJFJR 14:56, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

Just a FYI: permission is not enough. In fact, images used with permission are deleted on sight. The copyright holder must release it into the public domain, or into the GNU gobbledygook. Mirror Vax 00:33, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Probably not. It would be fair use to take a picture of the can or take it from the soda manufacturer's website. That's because you're refrencing them, not the photographer of the can. Superm401 | Talk July 2, 2005 19:03 (UTC)


[edit] Best before

I found a can which best before date was JUN 98. --Easyas12c 21:59, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Where has the drink been on market?

I've found only two places on the globe which has sold the drink. First one was some sort of snack/hotdog booth (you call a hole and a counter sinked in the outer wall of a building booth?) somewhere in Greece and the other was an import shop in Porvoo Finland which does not exist anymore. I've bought my (now empty) can from the latter. It is a shame I didn't bring an empty can with me from Greece. You'll never know what you'll need some day. ;-) --Easyas12c 22:08, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

I found this product in two places: First was in a market in Road Town on the island of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. It was in bottles, and I've added bottles as a container. This was back in the mid-to-late '80s. Then, in the early '90s, I found the product in the discount specials section of a County Market grocery store in Terre Haute, Indiana, USA. They had over 20 cases, and though I purchased some, it was summarily enjoyed in a timely fashion. I have not seen this product since, and information about it has been very difficult to find. - lonadar 07:28, 24 March 2006 (EST)

[edit] References

I read a can. How should one mention this in the article? --Easyas12c 18:19, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
