I believe that the barf bag is encyclopedic. This page should be given a chance to expand, not prodded or AfD'd or speedied (it's not a dictdef). -- Plutor 16:56, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is true. However, a medical treatment stub does not do the subject justice. This needs to be expanded into a full blown collecting entry. Barfbagger 19:52, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the link to Chuckie bags as it is a commercial site. Barfbagger 13:08, 27 September2006 (UTC)

Currently 3 out of 4 paragraphs of the collecting section refer to a promotional campaign by a single airline. Though it probably should be mentioned, isn't it too much? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JoshXF (talkcontribs) 00:59, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Far too much, agreed. Though it should be noted that a press release is a valid primary source if care is given to avoid OR. See almost any article on a company, for examples. Ideally they should use Template:Cite press release. -- Quiddity (talk) 01:59, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative Names

I feel that the term "barf bag" listed in the first sentence on the article is not encyclopaedic enough ("barf" is slang in most English speaking areas of which I know) and should be removed or moved to another section. Any disagreements? Theoboyd (talk) 15:26, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Removing then. Theoboyd (talk) 17:16, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
