What exactly is that nonsense about Harry Potter or something under "etui"? pointless 21:02, 16 October 2006 (UTC) NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!! XBOX 360 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.89.197.21 ( talk) 15:49, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
why is a million called box? and a billion yard?
This is a detailed article about the past and future of the packaging industry. I thought its most closely related to this article. [1]
It appears that my complaint in a summary
is probably directed at the 1911 EB rather than any of our editors. A lovely counterpoint to the EB's complaint about WP's coverage of Chinese art, no?

This is the most unintentionally amusing article I've read in ages. Is the acutely foppish content from the EB 1911 or from a box-fetishist editor? Also we have a ton of bizarre snuff info here which is scarcely box-related. Will have a go at removing the 'breathlessness'. About boxes. Jeez. -- Air 11:01, 26 May 2005 (UTC)
Actually, you're right. It is pretty complicated. But I say we keep it that way, as it's quite amusing.
I moved some of the brief sections that were mainly a link and a definition to the box (disambiguation) page. RJFJR 19:05, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
Are the boxes in Metal Gear Solid really famous? Or is that just the best which can be done? My suggestion is to re-title the section and go for something different for the content there. Perhaps mention Houdini — Gohst 03:20, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
I'm wondering what the name would be for this, a common type of container in Eastern Europe (or at least in Russia). Are they also called boxes, or do they have a special name? Esn 03:14, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I would like to see this article or a separate article explaining the information contained in box certificates. Sample link: http://www.boxshop.ca/box_certificate.php Pendragon39 ( talk) 03:49, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

3 types of boxes are apple,squash,and peas.
I'm trying to find a link to Wikipedia boxes, but can't. Couldn't one go in the article under "Related terms" or something?-- Tyranny Sue ( talk) 15:04, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Does anyone think box socks should be invented? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.18.24.86 ( talk) 01:23, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Saturday evening, being social, meet an interesting stranger. Searching around for conversation topics, I know she is on Wikipedia, so I tell her of my involvement and ask her questions about the topic. When discussing the subject of NPOV, I asked what NPOV meant to her when discussing a completely non-polarizing subject. She requested an example of a non-polarizing subject. Inspired by a Simpsons expert, I suggested the article "Box". Looking over the discussion, the ruling is that no, there hasn't been a polarization on the box article. This entitles me to one free ice cream sundae, I therefore thank you all. :) CreedShandor —Preceding unsigned comment added by CreedShandor ( talk • contribs) 02:26, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
This article opens with "plural boxen", while many of the sections use the term "boxes". This inconsistency is noticeable and should be fixed, replacing "boxen" or "boxes" with the appropriate term. 66.235.42.84 ( talk) 05:26, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Box is a rambling article which is is really just a disambiguation page with mostly links to main articles. It needs to be cleaned up but, better yet, it should be merged into Box (disambiguation).

This "Box" article is currently a mix of container information but also much other material on unrelated subjects and links. It would be best if Box was only related to the primary subjects of containers and packages. All other box related links should be on the Box Disambiguation Page. if needed, we might have to rename Box as “Box (container)" to clarify the content to readers. Comments?
