Opening comment
editCleaning up corporate references and trademarks. Bobzchemist 19:55, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Advertising
editArticle currently smacks of advertising. All the registered trademark signs, the "division of" stuff makes it read like something ripped off of their press release. Needs to be reverted. 24.57.195.9 03:04, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
I agree. Just like the mimio page, another Sanford (writing products) brand. CS46 16:55, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
I know that Papermate used to be owned by Gillette and that it has a long and interesting history. I would like to see it's history traced.
I would like to see histories of the other units that make up Sanford as well.

Flair
editI wanted to look up Flair (mentioned in a US tv show), only to find that a new redirect, Flair (pens), was created in 2015 by Loriendrew, but there's no mention in the article. It was added as unsourced OR in 2012 and deleted in 2020. Annoying 
, which is why I've raised it here, for posterity. 82.13.47.210 (talk) 02:48, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
