Talk:Mini survival kit

message: Proposed rewrite (already added it)
:Content of proposed article moved to /Proposed rewrite 2008
Please note that I compared information of 2 leading survival books (SAS Surval Handbook and the Survival Handbook by P. Darman to write the text and no contents has simply been copied. Also, I kept the information from the original article (some things where deleted as [[black shoe polish, instructions to make knots, ... as this is generally not commonly used in regular mini survival kits (perhaps in the larger kits but not the mini-ones). 
Finally I recommend changing the page to "Mini survival kit" rather than "Mini survival kits (with the -s)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by KVDP (talk • contribs) 16:24, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move of article to "Mini survival kit" 

message: This seems to be a peculiarly American variation, since in the UK at least, tobacco tins (2 oz or 1 oz) have always been the most common suggested container. Nick Cooper (talk) 16:59, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Also the origin of these is from Lofty Wiseman, who used a tobacco tin. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:52, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  No, in the UK at least the survival kit concept easily pre-dates Wiseman's 1985 book. Blue Peter did a feature on survival kits in the late-1970s, using a Coleman's mustard tin, but books around the same time recommend tobacco tins as an option.

replies: text:  Wiseman's tin (and much of the book) is originally 1970s.  But it wasn't published as a book until the '80s. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:21, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
