No-Spa

Whydoesitfeelsogood you need some independent source showing that "no-spa" is somehow significant. Otherwise your listing it here is raw spam. Do you have a source showing it is the dominant brand name? Jytdog (talk) 12:33, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. In Russia, nobody knows what "drotaverine" is but "No-Spa" is the first aid treatment for spasms. It's available everywhere. We don't need a source that Putin is the president, so why would we need one for this obviousness? --Whydoesitfeelsogood (talk) 17:34, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

the obscure brandname of an obscure drug is not like the name of the president. 19:10, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

OBSCURE?! My good man, it's all over the Eastern Bloc countries! Even in the Latin America, they know what No-Spa is. --Whydoesitfeelsogood (talk) 21:12, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

about what you wrote here and your activities on this article. yes, Wiki-en is a mature project and you cannot just add content to articles based on your own authority. this is an obscure drug that the general population (our readers) do not know about, much less knowing brand names in eastern europe. you need sources.
