 * Delete, advertising. Looking at the external link mentioned in the article, they post a link right back to the article: "In order to see for yourself if the depth and completeness of our instruction is worth a $10 subscription you may wish to review our article on the subject at Wikipedia." &mdash; Kimchi.sg | Talk 15:41, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comment. This is really infuriating. This is a clear and blatant case of abusing Wikipedia for commercial gain. It's OK when people link to Wikipedia articles as a neutral, objective reference, but a company writing an advertisement on Wikipedia and then linking to it from its own website makes me angry. They already have a website, they can write anything they want there, and advertise themselves as much as they want. What's stopping them from putting the article text on their own bloody website? Or haven't they yet figured out how to make links point at the same website? Are they simply trying to show that they can PWN! Wikipedia if they so choose? J I P  | Talk 19:27, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete per Kimchi.sg's new evidence. This is advertising for the service, especially if they are linking back to the article for the reason for advertising.  Also Wikipedia is not a how-to guide, as mentioned by several others (including the nomination).  From all this, I say: Wikibooks will probably request this page's deletion too.

 * Delete per nom (how-to guide) and per Kimchi.sg. Of course, the article does teach us that to move a window air conditioner one must first remove it from the window, which is surely valuable. Joe 23:01, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
