AS/NZS 2243.9 - Fume Cupboards

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article describing an obscure dangerous materials handling standard does not appear to be on a notable topic. The article seems to have been one of a series of articles on similar obscure topics created as part of an university project - this has been discussed at: WP:AWNB. I nominated this article for prod deletion, but this was disputed. Nick-D (talk) 23:13, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete They are all How to comply guides, not encyclopedic at all. possible copyvio from the standard  too. The-Pope (talk) 02:17, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete No sources suggest anything that would pass our notability guidelines - in particular, there has been no "significant coverage" that would allow us to write an encyclopedia article rather than a summary of the standard bou·le·var·dier (talk) 03:18, 5 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Not seeing any secondary coverage of the standards themselves to indicate notability. Qrsdogg (talk) 14:31, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and notability guidelines. The standard might be notable enough for a section in some umbrella article, but a section of the standard doesn't pass muster. LordVetinari (talk) 13:31, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete simply copying stuff of an official standards guide and expecting it to be an automatic WP article is unacceptable. LibStar (talk) 01:24, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
