Talk:List of boycotts
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WTF is this about a Kellogg's boycott in connection with circumcision? No documentation. - User:KriZe
- In general this article is a shambles. I've removed most of the listings under "consumer boycotts", which may, as you indicate, even be libelous. -- Dystopos 20:27, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- I’ve returned to the list those boycotts that are documented elsewhere on Wikipedia. It is not libel to describe or list the documented activities (such as boycotts) conducted by groups. Boycotts such as the Nestlé boycott are well documented and worthy of encyclopedic inclusion. I do agree that this list article needs a fair amount of work, but that’s not a reason to remove well–documented boycotts from this “list of boycotts.” —GrantNeufeld 07:29, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
- The documentation for the ones I removed was not apparent here. Thanks for your work to restore valid information. --Dystopos 15:04, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Birds Eye
Does anyone know anything about a boycott of Birdseye frozen foods in I think the 1970s or 1980s due to something like a support of whaling or seal clubbing? --Wrh1973 10:39, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
