Joe Six-Pack

When was beer (&/or soda) first sold that way? Trekphiler 22:50, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IRA six-pack?

I think that it's a kind of torture used by IRA, with a gun, a shot in the elbows, the knee caps and the ankles. If someone can confirm it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.12.228.217 (talk) 02:10, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Six Pack (comics)

There is a comic character in Garth Ennis's Hitman named Six Pack as well.

Primary topic?

The accompanying Dab page has had between 100 and 250 edits since creation in 2005 -- 20 since mid-January (6 months ago), and another 30 in the preceding 11 months. A lot of the last 50 edits are vandalism & removals of same; a fair amount has to do with the lack of a Dab link to any article on the topic of the beverage six-pack: revisions i'll describe as monstrosities that are neither an equal Dab'n nor a Primary-topic Dab'n. As i see no discussion of a deletion of any article aiming at that topic, and Six pack rings has survived about 2.5 years without so much as an AfD nomination, i'm undertaking the experiment of getting it onto the Dab page near the top, and cleaning up the Dab to a proper equal-Dabn page. I'll look for previous contributions to the Dab that amount to misguided attempts to squeeze a mini-article onto the Dab page, and put some kind of copy-salvage opportunity at talk:Six pack rings.

I see now that Six pack rings was part of the unacceptable mass of prose. Dab pages disambiguate; if you don't think my treatment of "Six pack rings" as first among equals in this MoSDab-conforming "equal dab'n", argue on this talk page or learn the guidelines for writing a primary-topic Dab'n (which could be more precisely called "a conforming Dab'n page, for a term that is the title of an article, or for which a WP primary topic otherwise exists"). Verbiage related to what the "Six pack rings" article is about, if added to the accompanying Dab page, will be removed per WP guidelines.

More General?

Why is beer sold in a six pack instead of a 4th or 8th pack? Could you add a line why six packs are common please?--2A02:810A:1E40:A14:A99B:998C:D15:A890 (talk) 20:28, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Or does that vary from country to country?--2A02:810A:1E40:A14:A99B:998C:D15:A890 (talk) 20:45, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
