[edit]Googling for "eclipse cigarette" yields quite a different perception from the one currently instilled by the article. See the anti-cancer site links there. BACbKA 20:49, 4 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe it is. I just paraphrased into plain english whatever PR marketing legalise the official site of that cigarette had. I tried to make it not POV by saying the carbon monoxide thing. I dont smoke and never have BTW. I think its a lil too anti-cigarette now. At first glance, it does seem safer, but not safe, and IMO it is a lesser evil. Anyone can make a study or research that says that something is something, look at all the pharmacutical companies and cosmetics and ummm crap you see being sold on late night cable tv channels. Something tells me each promise and point they state is backed up by like a 5-20 person study. Just for legal purposes incase they get sued by the FCC/FTC.I guess you guys can do whatever you want, but you should list more benifits of this cigarette if you want to say more negative stuff about it. I just wanted to make a nice stub lol.Patcat88 05:16, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- I have re-worded the article slightly to make it clearer that these are the company's own claims. I think that this re-wording couple with the existing balancing statements in the article mean that it should pass the NPOV test. TigerShark 00:52, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Removal of "Cigarette brands" category
[edit]I have removed Category:Cigarette brands from this article because Category:R.J. Reynolds brands is a sub-category of the former. It defeats the purpose of having this subcategory if we're going to list the articles in both. SchuminWeb (Talk) 01:47, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Eclipse cigarettes.jpg
[edit]Image:Eclipse cigarettes.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Original Research
[edit]This section seems to be original research:
"This writer's experience has proven (with non-smoker test subjects) that there is virtually no secondhand smoke that clings to draperies, clothes, upholstery etc, compared to the heavy pall of conventional tobacco smoke in a closed room."
I have added the original research tag to the article to make this clear.

CURRENT ECLIPSE SMOKER WHY IS EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS CIGARETTE SO TABOO?
[edit]I currently smoke Eclipse Cigarettes and have been smoking them regularly since they were introduced in Dallas Fort Worth in 2003. I only know of 2 places in the whole area that sell them. One of which is a 45 minute drive from me and the other one is nearby. However, they do not always keep them ordered because it would appear that I am the only person that ask for them.
I do not understand why this cigarette is given such bad press and yet any of the online stores who sell cigarettes advertise that they sell Eclipse Cigarettes but, when you go to their site you cannot find Eclipse Cigarettes being sold there. <refhttp://macigaretteshop.weebly.com/blog/where-can-you-buy-eclipse-cigarettes></ref>,[1]
The reason I started smoking Eclipse is I had smoked Marlboro Lights and started having a persistent cough and an accumulation of what I would call Flim. Anytime, I smoke a regular cigarette, after a couple of days I start having a nagging cough.
I am a living healthy test subject of the Eclipse Cigarette and I am willing to be examined to determine the effects of smoking this cigarette. I have no shortness of breath, I have no cough. They do not have the lingering odor of other cigarettes. They do not have ashes. They do not leave that nasty smoke smell in your clothes, your hair, in your vehicle, etc..
Why are every other brand of cigarettes sold online yet there are no Eclipse sold online or even in many stores? I DO NOT HAVE CANCER. I believe smoking Eclipse Cigarettes is not as unhealthy as smoking regular tobacco burning cigarettes. I AM HEALTHY.
Does anyone know of any places in the Dallas area where Eclipse Cigarettes are sold?IsmokeEclipseCigarettes (talk) 17:39, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
