Fir-Tex

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non Notable. No independent sources. Only source does not even mention the word Fir-Tex, so does not support the sourced fact. Promotional. Contains non encyclopedic manual like facts. User also tries to push the article on :nl. &mdash; Zanaq (?) 10:20, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Nice to find sources, you shoud try "toverhesje" (translated "magic vest") as the press and many instances called it initially before it was introduced, VU (Dutch University), News agencies, Runners groups and more mention it, independent?
 * How come that the same person can keep putting tags on the same article without any new reasons, this is against the policy of Wikipedia! It has been reviewed the previous time by a moderator and found in accordance. This same person tries to do the same thing on the :nl wikipedia where it has been put back because nobody comes with contructive or even the right arguments. Are the Dutch Olympic Committee (NOC-NSF), the Dutch Handbal Association and the different Dutch, Turkish, English or Spanish news agencies no independant sources? You must be joking? I do not try to push the article on :nl, some people try to kill it no matter how, without ANY founded reason! The article does meet all the Wiki standards and has been adapted accordingly.

 * Delete Non-notable. The references given are so unhelpful as to be almost deceptive. Three are dead links. The links to Dutch, Turkish, and Spanish news reports are about a "magic vest," but do not mention the name Fir-Tex, thus do not support the article. Google search yields nothing of note (and shows that there are at least two other, unrelated products - a construction material and a software product - with names that are variations on Fir-Tex). --MelanieN (talk) 16:42, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * "magic vest" is using FIR-TEX fabric! (Dicky747 (talk) 01:10, 13 February 2010 (UTC))
 * That may be true but it is not supported by any of the references. --MelanieN (talk) 16:37, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * And the language is also not quite error free. &mdash; Zanaq (?) 07:24, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * So please tell me where so I can correct it! (Dicky747 (talk) 01:11, 13 February 2010 (UTC))
 * I have cleaned up the language. Language errors are no reason to consider deleting an article. --MelanieN (talk) 16:47, 13 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. Not a notable product.  This is apparently about some kind of fabric used to make clothing used in sports, although you have to scroll to the end to learn that this is the point. Contains rather extensive "how to" type material on fabric care. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 16:14, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
