Are there sources to back up Coca-Cola's marketing of Thums Up as a masculine product?
Why is it called Thums Up and not Thumbs Up?/ Marxmax 23:20, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, maybe someone can comment on why "thumb" is misspelled. Is it just a case of strange indo-english like "press bottly vater" (fresh bottled water)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.107.10.20 ( talk) 21:22, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
An explanation of why a picture of Manmad Hill is included would be nice. Sure, I see the connection, but a piece of toast with the image of Jesus on it would not be placed non-contextually on the Wikipedia article for Jesus.
Is this article about Thums up or the life cycle of thums up? Why is brand killing and other totally unrelated entries are there here? A lot of entries should be just chucked off from this article... What say??? Mugunth 16:42, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Was the Double Cola marketed in India in the '80s actually the same as Double Cola? If so, how did K.J. International get around the prohibition of multinationals? Ibadibam ( talk) 21:53, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
The article currently states that Thums Up had an 85% market share when Coke was introduced, a figure supported by a source. But here's another source that gives the number as 36%. Is there any way we can get official statistics? Ibadibam ( talk) 00:23, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
This term is not an internationally viable one, and should either be referenced/defined or replaced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.9.152.157 ( talk) 13:38, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
I think there was a limited supply of Thums Up cola in northern Illinois. I remember in 2011 when my mom went to a smoke shop in Crystal Lake, IL near my house and i had to go with her, and I bought a glass bottle of Thums Up cola while in there. So maybe some info needs to be updated. 73.22.153.245 ( talk) 20:32, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
And that ref is about the brand being mentioned in Eat, Pray, Love. That's not a major part of the history that's in the article.
I'll go tag the article, but I won't make any further challenge to its rating. Be aware, though, that the entire History section could be deleted by a passing editor since there's no refs, especially the parts that discuss individuals and not companies, no matter how they were involved. — Geekdiva ( talk) 10:17, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
I've spend the last couple days adding citations to the article. As far as I can see, about 5 more sections need citations. When that's finished, how can I remove the citations needed?

@ Fastily: I'm not well versed with the workings of FFD but I see a FFD note in the infobox, discussion on which was closed long ago by you. Should that be removed? Thanks! — CX Zoom[he/him] ( let's talk • { C• X}) 11:40, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
