Talk:Borax (disambiguation)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There was no need to include here a reference to a particular brand of borax, because that in no way disambiguates the term. 20 Mule Team borax is intended to contain nothing but borax, therefore it is borax by the main meaning referenced here, and there's a link to its entry from the article on borax. So I deleted the reference here.

Possibly a reference could be added to an article here or in Wiktionary on the use of the word as a noun referencing cheap, inferior quality goods, and the etymology of that strange usage. Robert Goodman (talk) 05:15, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
