Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J-B Weld

J-B Weld and JB Weld was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was an even split. Failing to reach consensus, these articles are kept (though, of course, they may be renominated). Rossami 21:53, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Advertising. RickK 22:53, Jul 22, 2004 (UTC) This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like other '/delete' pages is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion or on the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
 * Heh, I should've anticipated this. I actually paraphrased (not copied) sections of their site, so I guess it does look like an advertisement.  Ah well, delete it and start over I guess; but I can't think of a way to compare it to other epoxies (which I have little information on) without leaving an advertising taste in the reader's mouth. --John Moser 23:00, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, your intentions may be good but the article does read like an ad, and the product does not have any particular cultural or historic importance. If you wanted to boil it down to a short paragraph, the article on Epoxy could certainly use expansion, and brief descriptions of (dare I say) the strengths and weaknesses of various products might be a good addition.

 * Keep stub. Send to Cleanup.  We have lots of good, balanced articles on individual companies (and their products). This can be salvaged. Rossami 23:48, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep, can be saved. - SimonP 02:21, Jul 23, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Reasonable starting point for useful article about a real product.  Jgm 23:40, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)
