I cannot find any references to this thing. A search for "Like cola" + "Made from the Cola Nut" (the supposed slogan) reveals one google hit, a mirror to Wikipedia. Unverifiable unsuccessful brand name. Probably not notable even if verified. Sjakkalle 08:28, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
References have been found and it apparently wasn't a hoax anyway like I thought. Keep and expand then. Sjakkalle 06:06, 24 May 2005 (UTC) (I am not at all sure if this flop is notable enough, but I will prefer to err on the side of inclusionism...) Sjakkalle 08:18, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

unverifiable. Short lived drink... there's the question of notability.Megan1967 10:24, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply] - Comment. I managed to find a couple of references to it: [1] [2]. It appears to be a short-lived drink from the 7-up company. I don't know whether it would qualify as notable though. Leithp 15:13, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Found another reference [3]. It refers to the drink being launched in 1982. There's a few other references out there but I don't have the patience to sift through them (terrible name for search engines). Still not enough for more than a sub-stub though.Leithp 20:35, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- On reflection we should probably keep this. Hopefully someone can find enough information to expand the article into something useful.Leithp 20:19, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep verifiable drink from notable source. Could be merged somewhere. Kappa 17:55, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Like Soda lasted for longer than the 1980s...I believe it originally started in the 1960s (Victoria Wyndham was a Like girl before she hit it big). Keep Mike H 19:28, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
- keep please but can this be expanded? Yuckfoo 21:51, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- keep Have started some work on expanding it. Need more people to be involved though. Still a very short article. MyNameIsNotBob 08:22, May 24, 2005 (UTC)
- keep If Wiki is the only place there's any information, that's all the more reason to keep the article.If we always delete the stuff that nobody can find information for, we're not being a good all-information source. User:tbsmith May 24, 2005
- Keep and expand. This was a semi-notable product for a while in the 80s. Xcali 05:07, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
