[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: consensus to move the pages to the proposed titles at this time, per the discussion below. Any possible merge of the book's article to the series is outside the scope of this close and should be discussed separately if necessary. Dekimasuよ! 20:46, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Barcode embedded in background graphics

[edit]

The series uses barcodes as graphics. The main "Food Unwrapped" logo has a mockup of a barcode that looks like a UPC-E (USA style 8 digit) or private short barcode (as used by Sainsbury's and M&S for their own brand products), but with letters underneath where the numbers would be; clearly not a valid use of a recognised barcode symbology. (Would be interesting to see if it would scan and what numbers would result)

Elsewhere from time to time (in later series) a second barcode is seen which seems to be 978-1-932698-13-8/1-932698-13-2 (and in valid barcode symbology for an EAN 13 representation of an ISBN). It's not easy to catch the whole barcode on screen, often it is only partially visible. ISBN 9781932698138 maps to a humour magazine: Cabinet Magazine
