BasketMaking
I suggested that this page be deleted because it is more of a dictionary entry and does not contain any substantial content. Possibly a candidate to be moved to Wiktionary instead. Stifle 19:01, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * This afd nomination was orphaned. Listing now. &mdash;Crypticbot (operator) 13:23, 12 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep; I understand the motivation of the nominator, and I agree that the current version of the article is just a little more than a definition. However, it could be turned into a real article, as something can be said about the topic: see for example, which I have added to the article. If kept, should be moved to Basketmaking.

 * Actually, most of the existing redlinks point to basket weaving. Uncle G 18:25, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. Thanks for the information. To facilitate the next editors passing here, I will add the direct links:
 * Special:Whatlinkshere/Basket_weaving, besides this AfD and a talk page, three links: underwater basket weaving, Tohono O'odham and Pima;
 * Special:Whatlinkshere/Basket_making: one link, to Mongu
 * No links for Special:Whatlinkshere/Basketmaking.
 * I have no specific preference as for the new name, but I would just not base a decision only on these figures. Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 18:39, 12 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment. A useful article could be written about basket making or basket weaving. "Basket making" gets 267,000 Google results, "Basket weaving" gets 378,000 so article should be renamed as "Basket weaving should be title. However, the article needs more information than what is currently in the article. Capitalistroadster 23:31, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Even as a definition this has problems, as baskets are made of other materials besides willows. - Dalbury (talk) 00:22, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
