Green label[edit]

I think that a little research would show that the green-label version was 86 proof for a while before being watered down to 80. 2600:1004:B140:7F52:3DE2:9114:5076:DE33 (talk) 21:14, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Here, with true LA funky-rock. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 05:31, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It was, actually, just a very short notice of inclusion for Keith Richards, removal of which was undue. Only at this point I have something to say: of course being pictured with a bottle in your hand or on your mouth doesn't necessarily makes one "notable drinker", his/her celebrity status makes one notable drinker. As for the ref, being pic'ed could really mean, although unlikely, that Keith, in this case, just happened to like holding a bottle in his hand, and a liquid in his mouth, throat and stomach, however article says explicitly "his favorite spirit" which, as a source, is due enough and clear enough, unless someone thinks we need stronger source, like, i don't know, a scholarly research, published journal paper? Twitter is just fun illustration, one article with explicit claim and lot of funn photos is quite enough - I believe we really do not need to overkill with refs on this one.--౪ Santa ౪^99° 20:13, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But in case someone thinks some sort of at least journo research on the case, you can use this one whisky-s-place-in-rock-n-roll-history, with some other famous names included. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 20:23, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand what you are proposing to do to the article.לילך5 (talk) 20:27, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

He's trying to justify his edit warring. I would be willing to discuss adding the Keith Richards photo, but there's no point since Santasa99 has already decided we're going to include it. GA-RT-22 (talk) 23:02, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What photo; and yes consensus is a must and editor should seek it, unless one is about to add something really not controversial at all, well refed, all the while added bit is deemed, using common sense, informative and an improvement. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 23:25, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I reverted undue removal, so, there is no justification of "edit-waring".--౪ Santa ౪^99° 23:29, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
