[edit] Common Nicknames

I removed the following from the body of the article, as the corresponding reference in the article on Paul Molitor has also been deleted. I was unable to find any outside references to this. Since there are no other nicknames, I also removed the entire subheading for the time being.

==Common Nicknames==
- Miller lite is commonly known by the following nicknames:
- * Paul Molitor

I am also copying existing comments about nicknames into this section. Jzerocsk 15:33, 13 June 2006 (UTC)


"This is also the beer that you see drank in WWE. It is always the beer that Stone Cold Steve Austin drinks." —Why is this in this article at all? Millions of people drink Miller Lite; why is this person specifically mentioned? Hulk Hogan drinks it too, BROTHER!!

Not to mention there is an infamous incident where a Coors Light truck is involved.--Attitude2000 19:55, 16 July 2006 (UTC)


Colorful nicknames: the nickname of "nick lachey" or "nicks" should also be included as many young people who enjoy miller lite recognize that it is the choice beer of nick lachey, and in his reality show career is always shown drinking one, hence the beer is often referred to as it's famous patron's name. i feel very strngly about this nickname's inclusion. ask anyone, they will say the same thing.

[edit] COI and Wiki scanner

By using the Wiki scanner tool, I have found that the Miller Brewing Company IP addresses have made substantial COI edits of blatantly POV nature to the article. Thus, I reverted to a version before such edits. Please forgive any inconvenience this may have caused, but the neutrality and factual accuracy of Wikipedia is at stake with these compromising edits.

This link provides the list of IPs registered to the company. VanTucky Talk 04:44, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

What blatant POV edits? I just looked at the difference betweeen the one you reverted to and the current article, and absolutely nothing struck me as POV in the least. I've re-reverted, because the previous version was better, and there's no reason to reject good edits merely because they came from company employees. Anything blatantly POV seems to have already been taken care of by the Wiki process before you got here. FCYTravis 13:21, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy

I would like to add the information from the following link to the article as it is interesting and relevant, but I wouldn't even know where to start. Perhaps a more experienced editor could please help? http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20071012/cm_uc_crbbox/op_234073;_ylt=ApH8AF.IiRtRb0lqwvSTH0Ws0NUE —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.123.158.30 (talk) 21:38, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
