Ration carton (talk - history - links - logs - delete - protect)
This is only a single-sentence mention of Food rations or Ration packs that happen to have been in a carton, as opposed to a meal that was served. The complete sentence, from Sian Jeisel: "We've been eating out of ration cartons for weeks." Either of the prior articles could cover this use.

Redirect to Ration pack
- Despite nominating to delete, changed my mind to keep as redirect to Ration pack/Legends-- see comments where Winterz explained why. Immi Thrax (talk) 02:00, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

- Couldn't we just redirect it to Ration pack? The same meaning, similar naming. Winterz (talk) 15:51, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- We could-- though having it as a Ration pack/Legends (not canon!) redirect only impacts 2 pages. I'd suggest instead {{ID|ration cartons}}. Immi Thrax (talk) 16:03, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- To Legends, right. I don't think the number of pages it impacts matters much, there are some redirects that never led to anywhere. If it's a term used, then it's worth a redirect. Fandom search function isn't ideal and if it doesn't have a redirect, searching for "ration carton" will lead to nowhere. Winterz (talk) 19:23, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Ah yes-- I forget about how bad the built-in search function is, so suggested deletion didn't account for that. Based on what you've said, I'd change my vote to that. Immi Thrax (talk) 01:11, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
