Is the Norwegian drink the same as the Australian one?
I notice that in consecutive edits, Cdc has removed the mention of Schweppes Solo (an Australian soft drink) [1] and Profoss has added Solo (a Norwegian soft drink) [2]. This leads me to ask two questions:
- Why did Cdc remove the ozzie drink from the list? [And why was it summarised as "minor editing"? It seems pretty major to me; maybe the removal was accidental...]
- Are the "Norwegian" and "Australian" soft drinks actually the same lemon-flavoured concoction, sold by Schweppes (or a subsidiary) in both countries? [And why did the inserters of both items feel that they should mention a location?]
In other words, should there be 1, 2, or no soft drinks in the list? I'm inclined to restore the original (before Cdc's edit), but remove the geographic reference on the assumption that it's marketted in various different places. But I'll wait and see if anyone can clarify first. - IMSoP 19:01, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
dab
I'm disambiguating some pages which link to this page, and I come across a lot of things like "(artist) began his solo career" or "he released two solo albums." This usage is not mentioned on this page. Right now I'm unlinking them. Any better suggestions? Keppa 18:29, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
- Don't unlink them! Sorry for the exclamation, but I don't want you to do too much work going back and making the links. The appropriate link is to the article solo (music). If you take a look, it does discuss a solo career/album briefly. However, you do bring to attention that the disambiguation entry does not do a good job of describing that, which I will correct. -- Natalya 19:25, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Also, there are apparently two "Solo"s in the comic book world: one is a series by DC, and another is a character created by Marvel. If anyone has more information...Keppa 23:55, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm... thanks for pointing this out. I mistakenly reverted an edit recently because someone repeated the link to ]
Move
Solo (soft drink) should be moved to Solo (Australian soft drink). Solo (soft drink) should then either be a dab-page or redirect to Solo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.55.60.110 (talk) 06:17, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

- Not sure about the time frame, but it should eventually be similar to MOS:DABRL rule you mention, but if that is widely accepted practice, then wp:RED should say something of the sort. No objection to focussing on the products vice the company with or without GmbH. LeadSongDog come howl! 01:25, 26 September 2015 (UTC)]
