Britvic Orange[edit]

I just removed this from the article. "The most famous of its drinks is known as "Britvic Orange", which is made from concentrated orange juice." Is this really the most famous of its drinks? I've never even heard of this, nor have a number of other people I asked. Pretty much all the other drinks they make listed on this page seem to be more well known than this.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Thadius865 (talk • contribs)

- Britvic fruit juices, in particular orange juice, is pretty much at every pub in the UK. The Britvic 55 orange still being popular (or more commonly made from a britvic orange and lemonade rather than an actual 55 bottle). I would say that it is probably the most recognisable thing under the britvic brand (not other brands). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.79.70.4 (talk) 00:49, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ireland[edit]

An editor removed the section on Ireland deleting every reference and replacing it with Northern Ireland only, I have now restored stable wording of ROI and NI.Murry1975 (talk) 09:55, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Primary sources[edit]

Five of the references (twelve if you count multiple refs to the same source) are to Britvic's own website. I think this is too many, and enough to warrant my adding a {{primary sources}} tag. 82.22.227.170 (talk) 11:50, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

  • http://www.drinks-business-review.com/article_news.asp?guid=2AE313EC-0AC7-4395-84B9-87A1FCD73EFE
    Triggered by -business-review\.com\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

History[edit]

The first sentence under this heading reads "The company was founded in the mid-nineteenth century in Chelmsford as the British Vitamin Products Company." How can this be, since the term "vitamin" first appeared in the early 20th century (Mirriam-Webster)?

✅  Edit request partially implemented  

  1. Green tickY The |revenue= parameter was updated.
  2. Red XN "Operating profit" could not be updated because no such parameter exists within the template. The COI editor may have meant the |operating income= parameter. Please clarify.
  3. Red XN "Net profit" could not be updated because no such parameter exists within the template. The COI editor may have meant the |net income= parameter. Please clarify.
