Help
Islam is now allow to drink pepsi due to some pigs items is basic ingredient of this products I screwed something up on the page when I took something that was spam out of the article. I do not know how to fix it.
Flavour section
In reference to the flavour section, I figured the most likely way of portraying the various flavours were as one long list as it may become rather disputable to some if categorized another way. Of course this can become rather unwieldy though. I for one agree Code Red is virtually Mountain Dew with a variant kick, but I'm not so sure it may be the best way to go about it. Also, I see horizontal listing as obscurred when vertical makes it quite easy to see multiple flavours such as Pepsi, Pepsi ONE, Pepsi, etc. and cancel out all the Pepsis in my head rather having various colour patterns and trying to differentiate amoung how a group listing is separated. Perhaps this is all wrong though so I would like some council on what the rest of you think. Dtgm
Health concerns?
So, whatever happened with the whole "health concern" issue? I see that the section is still not on the page, but only other questions as to why, and not any answers. Thoughts? DarkOppressor (talk) 17:29, December 12 2008 (UTC)
Slogans
Was "Buy a can 50p" really the UK slogan between 1975 and 1977? 50p for a can would have been ludicrously expensive then. 5p would be nearer the mark. The only reference to the slogan is this page or sources that seem to have been copied from here.78.146.130.30 (talk) 05:41, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, a few slogans in there were actually just subtle attempts at vandalism, "Don't be a tramp, buy a can" being perhaps the most glaring. I've removed those and did a little fixing up of the 80s/90s slogans.
- Sadly, the whole Slogans section is a mess; a mish-mash of American taglines for regular Pepsi and international ones, plus slogans for Diet Pepsi and other product extensions. To make matters worse, every celebrity who's ever sung a line in a Pepsi ad seems to be mentioned here, which is needless.
- My suggestion would be that the slogan section for the Pepsi article should list the slogans for Pepsi in the US chronologically, followed by known international ones. Information about the slogans for Diet Pepsi etc. should appear in the relevant articles for those products. Asukasboy (talk) 22:20, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
- Did it! I will move the Diet Pepsi ones, ASAP! Coolboygcp (talk) 19:52, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

niche marketing
Mack is described as "progressive " which may be misleading or at least not supported. Just one google search of mack reveals the times obit above that states he was a republican fundraiser. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.122.47.122 (talk) 14:51, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
Inappropriate information
The first line of this article states that pepsi is a carbonated drink manufactured by PepsiCo and contains 90% urine. Thats inappropriate.. requesting to take the necesssary action to modify as i guess a lot of people use the wiki as a good source of info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.98.243.210 (talk) 14:09, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, it was vandalism; Ischafer reverted that. Materialscientist (talk) 14:15, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
Higher resolution original logo
Hi, sorry if I'm doing this wrong! I've found a much higher resolution copy of the 'original logo' in this pepsi logo design PDF here: Hi, I don't really know how this works but there's a much higher resolution copy of the 'original pepsi logo' on page 8 of this PDF. :-) http://s0.goldennumber.net/wp-content/uploads/pepsi-arnell-021109.pdf (page 8?)

On "stylization"
Never thought I'd see the day where Misplaced Pages would be fighting against me over this.
Pepsi uses "Pepsi", not "pepsi" or "PEPSI" or anything else. We mention stylizations when it's something the company actually uses, but Misplaced Pages refuses to. Anything else is useless information... just think of the possibilities. Oh, time to move Columbia Pictures to COLUMBIA, because that's all the logo has, right? Gonna move Time Warner over to TimeWarner, that's what the logo looks like!
The only time you should ever consider the logo is when things are vague; a great example is ImageFight. (Terrible shame that the NES localization uses "Image Fight" everywhere, really. CamelCase is cool.) Despatche (talk) 16:02, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- There is no rule about using stylizations in lead. Even "I Knew You Were Trouble.", "vevo, formerly VEVO", or "allmusic, previsouly as AllMusic and AMG" have the same syle of lead. PepsiCo trademarked and labelled it as "pepsi" and "PEPSI", if they refer to it as "Pepsi" in the label, why it is not branded "Pepsi", but "pepsi" and previously "PEPSI", like in Coca-Cola? If ImageFight is called and/or titled "Image Fight" is irrelevant here. This is not a "PepSi" issue. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 19:28, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- I can't even think of how I'm supposed to respond to such meaningless nonsense. I don't know why companies don't follow their logos; no one does, and they probably never will. What I do know is that if all caps is trademarked but not used, it's been done as a precaution, and also because of its "default" nature; this Pepsi stuff is a great example (Pepsi Twist should have smashed your face in, but no). Once again, you may as well mention just how much out there is in all caps... "PepSi"? You honestly believe the ImageFight case has anything to do with this made up nonsense? God, what am I supposed to do? Despatche (talk) 22:00, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, you're completely out of control, and there is no possible way I can fight you. Are you happy now? Despatche (talk) 22:04, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- First of all stop edit-warring, and stop with your "I'm going to win, get all the admin you want, they are idiots" attitude. Second, there are easiest solutions to resolve this, but you want to do a drama on something so simple. You can ask other people to get involved within this, like in a WP:RFC discussion or ask other people to join here, but considering this, this is the way you act: as if you are always right, even when you aren't. Also, this is not a fight, but you want it to be one. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 22:10, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Why are you lying to my face? You need to understand that you are the one "edit-warring". You need to understand that you are the one that "wants to win". You need to understand that you are the one causing the drama and creating the battles here, that you're the one fronting this attitude, and you're not even saying much to do it! Most importantly of all, you need to answer some of my questions instead of dodging them all like they're somehow irrelevant; you need to stop ignoring the discussion if you're going to try and solve the problem.

- Look, I'm trying to solve that problem, because it seems you won't; there doesn't appear to be a problem, to you, even though you've made it quite clear that there is. I have very clearly stated what I know about your points, even though some of them simply don't make any sense, and I'd greatly appreciate it if you do the same. Despatche (talk) 22:19, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- To edit-war there are needed two people, is stupid to believe I am edit-warring with myself, so don't act as if you are the good one here, and blame me exclusively. Also, you are not "trying to solve that 'problem'", when you are calling me dirty rat and vandal, that won't solve anything (excepting that you are likely to be blocked), and BTW, your "castle", is not yours your highness.

If it isn't clear enough: I'm waiting for a reply. Stop dodging already and fight fair if you want to fight at all. Despatche (talk) 02:37, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
- If you want to "fight" I don't, especially considering your editing pattern including you decided to violate the WP:3RR rule after a AN3 report. You never proved why it is "wrong", or cited any kind of policy or guideline that favors you, but demostrated the lack of cooperativism denoted a month ago with Unofficial. Tbhotch.
