Talk:Pub crawl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Bar tour" is a term more common to American English, while "Pub Crawl" is used throughout the English speaking world, including the US. In the US, the term "pub crawl" conotes getting incredibly drunk, while one may not necessarily become sloppy drunk participating in a bar tour. The "bar tour" article deals with the culture surrounding American bar tours. I think it would be better for the articles to cross-reference each other than be combined into one.
I think you're making shit up. "Bar tour" what the fuck is that shite. I'm American and have never heard this term. Yet I've been on loads of "pub crawls"! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.152.23.8 (talk) 23:37, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
Would a reference to the infamous pub crawl in Red Dwarf be appropriate? --Merovingian (t) (c) (e) 19:56, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- Possibly, perhaps a fictional pub crawl section or even a new entry maybe in order. --BarFly (t) (c) 22:48, 12 April 2006 (GMT)
[edit] Unsourced material will be removed without mercy
This article is terrible. It cites exactly one source, the OED, for one piece of information. (I strongly doubt that Guinness World Records, whose most recent edition (ISBN 1904994121) was published on 2006-08-08, lists a world record purportedly made two months after its publication.) All information must be sourced, and unsourced material will be removed without mercy. Uncle G 11:05, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
Why exactly are there so many "citation needed" tags on this article? Particularly with the Monopoly Pub Crawl, because there's NOTHING there that's not verifiable facts.
- There are far, far too many "Examples of famous pub crawls" in here. Every town of any size will have one - we can't go including all of them! The Monopoly board one is an example of one that probably should stay because it's genuinely well-known beyond the confines of London... but how many people outside Stoke, Mumbles or Wiesbaden have heard of those? 86.132.142.39 01:16, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
I've removed a ton of unsourced material. Material added in without reliable sources is subejct to removal. - 152.91.9.144 23:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
The image used hardly looks a 'likely stop' - more a picturesque country pub!
[edit] Commercial Pub Crawls
This page used to have several links to companies running pub crawls around Europe. Some are still mentioned in the Details section but all links to commercial pub crawls have been removed except for the one in Rome. I think this violates neutrality; either all commercial companies get a link, or none. The majority of the article is for private routes for the public to freely participate in so it makes no sense to have the commercial ones in the same section. I suggest we create a subheading for pub crawl companies and put in as many as we can find - or the Rome ones are cut.
I'd like links to professional pub crawl operators to be included under a separate heading please. Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.215.51.203 (talk) 04:30, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
