Proposed deletion of Shell mold casting
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Shell mold casting, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process
 * Wikipedia is not a how-to guide, and this is already covered in the existing article Casting.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Your article Shell mold casting
I have turned your article into a redirect, so that anyone who clicks on it will be taken to the "Shell molding" section of the existing article Casting, which covers the same material. Before you plan a new article, it is always worth checking to see whether there is already an article on the subject; if there is, but you have (properly sourced) information to add, it may be better to edit the existing article rather than start a new one.
