Perhaps if WP:INTERESTING were a notability criteria, but no. The article itself claims no notability (and started off as an advert), furthermore I can't seem to find any reference to it anywhere except for unreliable websites, and no media coverage whatsoever. I also couldn't find any notability criteria that applies specifically to medication or OTC meds, so apologies in advance if somehow this does deserve to stay and I just haven't seen the related policy..

- Delete. The article "does not assert the importance or significance of its subject". --Malcolmxl5 10:05, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong keep, I've expanded and referenced it. Its notability lies in its role in the recognition of aspirin's usefulness as an antithrombotic agent. Gordonofcartoon 12:50, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

- Comment Great, but what if the pain is in your jaw? ~ Infrangible 13:11, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- And does it lose its analgesic effect on the bedpost overnight? Gordonofcartoon 15:00, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - The notability criteria that applies to medication and everything else on Misplaced Pages is Misplaced Pages:Notability. Aspergum has received enough coverage in independent reliable sources so that a verifiable artice can be written on the topic. Thus, keep. -- Jreferee 16:02, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep The product has been on the market for decades, and may even have lost its trademark by now. It's (a) an effective method of treating sore throat pain in that its design keeps the analgesic in the mouth and throat; (b) a more sensible alternative than antibiotics for treatment of minor throat discomfort; and (c) the ultimate in "keep out of reach of children" products, with each piece of chewing gum containing a dose of aspirin. And yes, Gordon, it does lose its analgesic effect on the bedpost overnight :) If that's not a part of the warning label, it should be. Maybe there's no media coverage, but how often is Tylenol in the news these days? Mandsford 16:16, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong keep, has been rewritten and now passes WP:RS and WP:V. Ten Pound Hammer • 16:21, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
