Foil imaging

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unreferenced since forever. Looks like there is a general, encyclopedic and probably notable topic hiding somewhere nearby, but this article is instead about one person's particular strand of it. If such an article is to stand, it has to show sources as to why that, and not merely foil printing in general, is the notable topic. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:49, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

 * delete, or possibly merge with foil stamping  There's historical material on the latter subject which could be used if it were sourced properly, but as it stands this is promotional, and searches for the technique inevitably lead back to Myers, her device, or her company.

 * I hadn't found that article, but I'd be happy with a merge to it. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:46, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
 * The more I think about it, the more I'm of the opinion that this is a technique that hasn't caught on. Improving foil stamping really can't rely on this utterly uncited article. Mangoe (talk) 19:37, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - Unsourced, and shamelessly self-promotional. An article about a technique invented by one person, whose MFA also apparently taught them industrial fabrication skills?  Moreover, the product doesn't even exist yet, according to its own website. MSJapan (talk) 01:20, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
