"Beetle" isn't trademarked for the "old beetle" and in fact can't be trademarked on its own since it's already a generic English word. "New Beetle" may be a trademark. The old beetle's official names was "Type 1" as far as I've ever known. — Hippietrail 03:17, 17 Jul 2004 (UTC)

rfd-sense: "Nickname of two models of car made by Volkswagen." This should be Beetle, though since it's a mark of car I'd prefer just to delete it. I mean, it's not just a nickname, there is a VW Beetle. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:40, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).
Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.
Rfv-sense: Nickname of two models of car made by Volkswagen. Needs citations with this capitalization, since I think it's written in uppercase only. They might also need to meet WT:BRAND. -- Prince Kassad 15:05, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
