Talk:Boxfresh
 | This article was nominated for deletion on 19 December 2015. The result of the discussion was keep. |
| This page was proposed for deletion by Coffeehorse (talk · contribs) on 22 June 2010 with the comment: This article refers to a non-notable commercial entity. There is more than one 'boxfresh' (UK clothing label, AUS produce merchant, DE footwear manufacturer), all of equal notability. Either all should have an article, with this page existing as a redirect, or none should. While factual, there is obvious commercial bias in this article - it exists only to increase the notability of said content It was contested by Michig (talk · contribs) with the comment: deprod - see talk page. Irrelevant websites of similarly-named but unrelated companies removed from external links |

No references to 'box-fresh' as slang can be found prior to 1989, when the company was formed. This should be deleted. First referenced in The Concide New Partrige Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English as:
boxfresh: adjective of shoes, especially trainers, unworn UK, 2003[1]
Article proposed for deletion as not notable or meeting wikipedia's quality guidelines. Unless somebody wants to provide citations, create a splitter page and reference Boxfresh.com.au (referenced here in Australia by Channel 7, Channel 9, Sunday Night (TV show), Sydney Morning Herald (largest newspaper in australia) and The Sydney Magazine, as Boxfresh (Produce Purveyor) or similar and change this page to Boxfresh (Apparel), I see deleting this page as the only way to preserve Wikipedia quality guidelines.
