Advertising slogans
I don't know if advertising slogans are really quotes - and none of these are sourced as well. — UDScott 02:05, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete . ~ UDScott 02:05, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - although I nominated this page, if sources can be found (as BD2412 has begun to add), I am changing my vote. But all slogans that cannot be sourced should be removed (and frequent patrolling may be required to remove vandalism, as this page seems to be a frequent target). ~ UDScott 18:27, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks - I'll keep on the page for vandalism, and work through the quotes to sort out the garbage. I'll propose some specific guidelines for what ought to be includable on the article's talk page. BD2412 T 00:49, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Should be easy to verify and source them (as a matter of practical reality, most of us will recognize most of these right away), and there are no copyright or living person concerns. Admittedly, many are trite, but there are a few that are surprisingly profound ("It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken"; "With a name like Smuckers....it has to be good"; "Between love and madness lies Obsession"; "The lion leaps from strength to strength"; even "Obey your thirst"). The page could use guidelines to keep out "slogans" that merely say "Buy X" or "X is the best Y", and to insure that obscure local businesses do not try to use the page for free advertising (although I don't see any of that now), but overall I think it is useful to have the page in order to keep the slogans that have a bit more to them.

 * I've sourced a handful of slogans which I feel are quoteworthy. BD2412 T 19:20, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep 219.89.73.35 01:15, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, but warily. Ideally there should only be slogans that are notably quoted outside the context of the advertising campaigns themselves (I added one myself), but I am pessimistic about holding the line. ~ Ningauble 05:16, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. – RyanCross (talk ) 05:36, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. - InvisibleSun 00:39, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - But why not just move all the unsourced stuff to the talk page as a holding pen, and then gradually move it back to the page itself as each quote is verified and sourced appropriately? That would make the cleanup process a bit easier. Cirt (talk) 08:24, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer a sub-page for that, Advertising slogans/unsourced. Also, most of the unsourced stuff should be deleted. We should only have quotes on that page that are pithy or poignant (or at least interesting) independent of their status as advertising slogans. BD2412 T 09:10, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
