Notable? - Ta bu shi da yu 04:10, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)

• Notable, but bad article. Send to cleanup. -R. fiend 04:13, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Notable. Keep and clean up. —No-One Jones ^(m) 04:14, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Comment: '"Nat Sherman"' cigars scores not far short of 37 000 hits on google.Dr Zen 04:16, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Delete: Article is about the brand, and not much can be said about the brand except that it's a cigar. Article should be on Nat Sherman, the whole industry, where a brand can be listed. Looking through one's cupboard and typing on Wikipedia seems like a bad philosophy. Delete because it is not a landmark, leader, or pioneering brand or company. Geogre 05:59, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • I disagree. It's an established brand of quality cigarette. Many regard it as the high class brand of smokes. A personal anecdote: friend of mine used to smoke them, and used to mention how the headquarters had the classiest address in the world: the corner of 5th Ave. and 42nd St. in New York. I agreed, until I went there and saw one of the corners was a vacant lot. -R. fiend 06:07, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • I was on the fence. I still am. It sure is a bad stub. (I thought Montechristo cigars were the ones everyone wanted?) Not a smoker. Geogre 13:58, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Is it a cigar or cigarette brand? I smoke cigarettes, am in the US, and have never heard of them. If it's a cigarette, delete--my generic brand gpc cigarettes gets more hits than "nat sherman". marlboro cigarettes, the #1 cig brand in the US (AFAIK) gets 10 times as many hits as either.

  • Certainly cigarettes, but I guess cigars and pipe tobacco too. They're not a real mainstream brand, but they are popular with a certain type of smoker. Nat Shermans are more likely to be sold at a tobacco shop than a gas station. Quite highfalutin. I think this deserves an article, but this current one stinks. -R. fiend 16:47, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• It's a full line of smokable tobacco products - cigarets, cigars, pipe tobacco. The article is inaccurate, but since we've got articles on other tobacco companies, this one fits in as one of the few small family-run companies in the business in the US (and in 40 other countries). Keep and expand. --jpgordon{gab} 16:12, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • I made it into a slightly better stub. Could still use some work. -R. fiend 21:59, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Keep and expand, notable brand, probably the most important smaller tobacco company in the U.S. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:08, Nov 27, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep it —[[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 20:22, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Not just one brand they are a whole company selling a line of cigarettes. More notable because of the small number of small tobacco companies. It's probably one of the biggest of the small cigarette manufacturers in the US. But it needs a better article! Willmcw 10:46, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Nat Sherman has been purchased by Altria. If someone could update, it would help. Not in a position to do it myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FB90:2B61:DE1D:0:2B:DA20:A001 (talk) 21:48, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
