Old discussions[edit]

While the packaging technology may be the same, the bag-in-box for wine is unrelated to the soda syrup bag-in-box. I vote no merge. Wnissen 05:18, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I also vote NO MERGE. This is a no-brainer. The two containers are totally different in terms of origins, design, and purpose. --Coolcaesar 23:01, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I vote NO MERGE as well. I work in the packaging industry and these two products are completely different.

NO MERGE. Two quite different subjects, not just in terms of packing materials, but in terms of what the box-wine article is all about, which is much more than just its packaging method. Rob T Firefly 16:19, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus is NO MERGE. Tag has been removed. ◄§ĉҺɑʀκs► 14:04, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

External Links[edit]

There are too many external links for such a small article -- they are by and large commercial sites, most of which are not in English, and therefore not really germane to WP. I am removing them. RobLinwood 22:03, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I also removed the categories relating to wine, as there is a separate article on that. RobLinwood 22:06, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with your edits. The links are getting out of control.--Coolcaesar 08:17, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jerribox[edit]

This looks like some sales blurb that's been haphazardly copied into Wikipedia. It either needs to be tidied up (preferably by someone who knows what Jerriboxes are) or deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mspritch (talk • contribs) 23:30, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Jerribox" is a trademark of one of the packaging companies and this article should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.181.33.189 (talk) 06:58, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Corporate references and links[edit]

Wikipedia is clear that articles should not be commercial. References to one corporation vs another should be avoided. Please keep the article neutral and non-commercial. Rlsheehan (talk) 14:19, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the section about sources of equipment. Wikipedia is not a shopping catalog. Rlsheehan (talk) 16:24, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. Vegaswikian (talk) 20:40, 8 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bag-In-Box → Bag-in-box –

It says at one point: "The first commercial Bag-in-Box was invented by ...", which gives the game away that this is a generic term.

Per WP:CAPS and WP:TITLE the article title should be downcased. In addition, WP:MOS says that a compound item should not be upper-cased just because it is abbreviated with caps. Matches the formatting of related article titles. $Tony (talk)$ 14:36, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Vast preponderance of reliable sources (along with this article itself) treat this as a lowercase generic term. Deor (talk) 16:43, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Planning to rewrite this mess[edit]

Right now, the article engages in an unnecessary swerve from American to British English which is distracting as hell. As I recall from my brief pre-law-school detour into retail foodservice, Americans don't say "fitment," we say "connector." See this example (from an Australian writer), which I plan to add to the article as a source. Also, bag-in-box technology was invented by an American. Any objections before I fix this mess? --Coolcaesar (talk) 18:23, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
