Previous deletions

[edit]

I created this article before I realized that a previous article about the drink had been deleted from Incredible Hulk (cocktail). Since the article was deleted I can't tell if the new article I've created is substantially different from the old content, however I think the origin story and popularity among the hip-hop crowd (which will be expanded) make this article worthy of being kept.

Yes. This article has been considerably expanded, both in article content and in references. The original article was not much more than the single paragraph you removed from the List of cocktails. Thank you for giving such a good start to this new incarnation of the article. I added to it with linked information someone found for me. Given the notability, the popularity (New York to Hawaii), the references in popular culture, and the longevity of the drink (earliest citation is from 2002), I think this article should qualify as an article worthy of retaining in the Wikipedia. I hope so anyway, because now it's in better condition than many of the mixed drink related articles here. --Willscrlt 07:39, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot for your work, the article's looking great! Brad T. Cordeiro 23:02, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hope you don't mind my renaming the article to Incredible Hulk (cocktail), it is a better capitalization and it's conventional to have (cocktail) for cocktail articles. Good work on the article, it's quite well-referenced! -SpuriousQ (talk) 11:31, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit concerns

[edit]

I have seen a few reversions and controversial edits taking place with this article. Specifically:

File:HulkCocktail2.jpg
An Incredible Hulk in a martini glass
  1. Someone prefers more Hpnotiq to Hennesy in their Hulks, but I have provided three references (including Hpnotiq's website which has a strong interest in selling more Hpnotiq) that all clearly state the correct proportions are equal parts of 2 fl oz each.
  2. The claim of this drink being known as a "One cup, Fuck up" is completely unreferenced. The only references I found to this term were completely unrelated or were copies of this Wikipedia article. Unless some reliable sources can be located and cited, that reference should remain deleted as it is most likely a local term for the drink or a crude hoax.
  3. The new picture added to the article has no copyright information associated with it that I could find. If the original uploader, Pooleyusk could add that information, and if the license is an improvement over the current one (fair use), then the new photo should replace the current image (it's always better to replace fair use images with freely licensed ones when practical). The current photo is from Hpnotiq and meets all fair use requirements, but if Pooleyusk's photo is an original creation, that would be a better choice. If it's not a freely licensed one, then it would probably be better to stick with the one we know is acceptable to use here.

Fair use rationale for Image:Hulk Cocktail.jpg

[edit]

Image:Hulk Cocktail.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
