Man Law
[edit]I think the Marketing edit regarding Miller's previous "Man Law" ads, specifically the "Man Law" stating: "DON'T FRUIT THE BEER," was somewhat relevant, from a pop-culture-analysis point of view. I understand why mods deleted it, but I'm on the fence. It did make me think a little more about marketing, consumerism, and these products...
Second. Mention the man law thing. To not mention it smacks of corporate censorship - ie - Miller guys keep coming in here and deleting it. Same thing happens with the article on Disney. --Jon in California 208.127.73.82 12:49, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
This beer taste's like someone threw up beer and then put a little lime flavoring in it.
Actually it tastes exactly like Zima. Why no one mentions this is beyond me.
Why is everyone so down on the taste of this beer? Everyone hates it on every review on the web. I had it today and I loved it. Its not a Belgium stout for christ sakes, its a light beer with lime flavour. I don't look down on a dog for not being able to drive a bus and I don't criticise a light lime beer for not tasting like a Guiness. But for what it is it is good. By the way this article is for information about the product and not for discussing rather you like or dislike the product ;)

Fair use rationale for Image:MillerChill Bottle.jpg
[edit]Image:MillerChill Bottle.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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Term "Light" beer
[edit]One problem is that Light in the US means something completely different to Light in Australia. In Australia, a light beer means a low alcohol beer - like 2.7%. While there are lower carb beers being in the 4.5 or so range, and generally full strength beer around the 4.8-4.9 percent range. I wonder if the term low-calorie/kilojoule or low-carbohydrate or something like that would be a better international description 203.185.215.144 (talk) 01:59, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Redirect or separate article
[edit]What are people's opinions on Miller Chill being either a redirect, or its own article? I would like to discuss this for at least a few days before the article is possibility redirected again.--Rockfang (talk) 19:07, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
- WP:Product guides against having standalone articles on brands unless they are notable and there is enough significant information to justify a standalone article. The difficulty with named brands is that press releases and adverts tend to make them high profile with a lot of Google hits - however, a sensible judgment can be made in that if there isn't enough reliable information to say more than a paragraph of meaningful or notable content about the product, then it makes more sense to cover the product within the company page. A redirect is a not a deletion , it is simply directing the reader to the pertinent information in the most useful place. Under WP:Product guidelines, when there is enough information on the product to justify a standalone article, that is the time to break it out in WP:Summary style. This article currently has little useful information. There is speculation, trivia and redundancy. The core facts are: "Miller Chill is a chelada style 4.2% abv pale lager brewed with lime and salt. Introduced successfully by the Miller Brewing Company in 2007, sales dropped in 2008 after the launch of the rival Bud Light Lime." These core encyclopedic facts are contained here. Some of those core facts are not in this standalone article. When the core facts about Miller Chill are developed in future with appropriate reliable sources then that would be the time to create the standalone article. SilkTork *YES! 01:20, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
