To-do list

edit

It would be really great if somebody could go through the list of retail packages as currently available on http://www.swisslion-takovo.com/proizvodi/konditori/eurocrem/ and update the list within article. -- Dsimic (talk) 12:59, 15 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Merge back

edit

Eurocrem seems notable but I hardly see any future for this list in a separate article. At this moment, with those product codes, dimensions, the only reference from Swisslion Takovo... it looks like a product catalog. It would be better to merge this information back to "Available packages".

However, the table would still look like a catalog. Perhaps a synthesized version would be more suitable, something like:

Package type Retail package net weight Appearance
Foil pack 11–100 g (0.39–3.53 oz) small image
Plastic bowl 900 g (32 oz) small image
Pail 850 g (30 oz) – 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) small image

The official images from Swisslion Takovo can be used only for product promotion. 84.127.80.114 (talk) 22:00, 6 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Good point. However, the table has been extracted into a separate article because of recommendations for handling trivia, so I'd say that merging it back pretty much isn't an option. I do agree that all of the provided information isn't that important – who needs to know how many of those fit into a shipping container? Went ahead and deleted those useless columns. What's left can't hurt to stay around, if you agree.
Regarding the images, I can buy various packages locally and take pictures of them, but do we need so many pictures of basically the same thing? — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 07:24, 7 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
Trivia articles should be avoided. Nevertheless, there is no specific timetable for the integration of trivia. The synthesized table would be a way to salvage information in case someone challenges this article.
There could be one picture per type. Example:
Product code Product name Retail package net weight Appearance
50520 Eurocrem in foil packs 15 g (0.53 oz) small image
50016 Eurocrem in foil packs 100 g (3.5 oz)
If images are to be added, I suggest adding only the first one. This could be a chance for Eurocrem users to start contributing. 84.127.80.114 (talk) 21:59, 7 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
It all makes sense, but the trouble is that inclusion of such a large table into not so long Eurocrem article pretty much dwarfs content of the article. In other words, such a table obviously becomes a trivia when merged into the article. :)
The more I'm thinking about it, it might be better to extract some of the important facts from the table (like further info on available types of packaging etc.) and incorporate that as prose into the Eurocrem article, and simply turn List of Eurocrem packages article into a redirect. All that if anyone challenges this "list" article, of course – current information it provides isn't super-usable, but it isn't that bad either.
Regarding consumers of Eurocrem and their contributions... Nah, I don't believe so, the article has been around for almost six years, and there have been only a few bigger contributors. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 02:55, 8 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
