Talk:Kiwi (shoe polish)

message: Having just now merged in a lot of text from that article, I've done the basic clean-up necessary to make the article not broken. No doubt it's still rather clunky, though. Doops |  talk 20:35, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Merged-in text from [[shoe polish]]

message: I heard from Diggnation episode 47 that Kiwi shoe polish is the most counterfeited product in the world, if it is true, a reference to that would be appropriate in the article. --Jcmaco 20:48, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It would indeed. Do you have a reference for this? If you do, then it's definitely encyclopedic information. Proto<I><B>/</B>/<B>/</B></I>type 08:27, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Do Sara lee still own it? Not clear. Rich Farmbrough, 15:26 11  December 2006 (GMT).
I just bought some at New World and it appears to be owned by Sara Lee and was made in Indonesia. I'm adding the latter to the list of countries made in. Roche-Kerr (talk) 09:22, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

message: :Image:Kiwilogo.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Yes, everybody loves that Kiwi shine,
Twice the polish in half the time.
K, I, W, I!
The shine for you and me.
I don't think advertising claims had to be backed up by research in those days. Koro Neil (talk) 10:21, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm pretty sure New Zealanders were not widely known as Kiwis back in 1906, so it would seem likely that the polish was named after the Kiwi bird??? Ernest the Sheep (talk) 21:34, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
