−196°C Strong ZeroStrong ZeroWP:COMMONNAME and WP:CONCISE. Although the current title appears to be the full name of the product, multiple cited English-language sources refer to it simply as Strong Zero, which is more concise. The simpler title is also the primary name shown on the product label. I previously renamed the article to use proper minus sign and degree symbols, but it appears that it would have been better to just remove the temperature expression entirely. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:46, 30 November 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. echidnaLives - talk - edits 11:04, 7 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Style of English

edit

See WP:ENGVAR. The article initially was written using American spelling conventions ('flavor'/'labeling'/'labeled'). I believe that is the most common variation of English found in Japan, which is the product's primary market.

However, an IP editor just added a significant amount of content focused on the Australian market, and those edits used Australian spelling. Which spelling style should the article use? Considering that the product is now on the Australian market and that this is its only English-primary market, unless there is an objection, I think it is reasonable to switch the article to use Australian spelling consistently. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:49, 10 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
