Proposed split
[edit]- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- The result of this discussion was to split Benica11 (talk) 16:31, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
More than half of this page is taken up by the #Flavors and varieties section, so I propose that be split into its own article List of flavors and varieties of Mountain Dew. Thoughts?—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 00:33, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
- If not, can a "show/hide" option be added to these tables? (default to "hide".) Also, much of the content in the Notes column is trivial and should be removed. 107.77.202.85 (talk) 20:10, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
- Support. No-brainer in my opinion. Mary Gaulke (talk) 03:13, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
- Support By this point, around half of the article is the flavor table. Other soda flavors like Fanta and Pepsi already have separate pages for their flavor varieties, so I think it could and should work here as well. --Enterlousy (talk) 04:57, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
- Support. This is long overdue. TrailBlzr (talk) 10:53, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Recommended Edit
[edit]Brianjbonnema (talk) 14:14, 16 September 2021 (UTC) New here, so don't bite my head off. In the "In popular culture" section, it appears the sentence "After PepsiCo bought the soft drink Mountain Dew in 1964, they commissioned a set of advertisements featuring a "Good Old Mountain Dew"-based jingle and the drink's hillbilly mascot." should be moved to the preceding paragraph.
- I am not so sure. Ruslik_Zero 18:51, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Mountain Dew Energy was not completely phased out, It is still the main name of the brand in Australia. 203.100.4.132 (talk) 04:50, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. --Ferien (talk) 06:16, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
Splitting the Promotions section to its own page or Reworking to shorter Marketing Section
[edit]It might be worth splitting the "Promotions" section into its own article or reworking it into a much briefer Marketing section to better align with other soft drink pages such as Sprite (drink), Coca-Cola, and Pepsi Currently the promotions page is the majority of the page and does not seem to add much to the article (ReshenKusaga (talk) 01:02, 9 July 2022 (UTC)).
- Most of that content belongs on a fan wiki. Various advertising campaigns are not of general interest, and are not required to understand the subject. Its mere trivia. Malibu Sapphire (talk) 22:07, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
