Shop in a box

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsourced design concept. No indication of notability. I can't even find any reliable sources on the concept at all. clpo13(talk) 18:33, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. I've got a big fat nothing, with what sources appeared to exist being false positives for various workshop or materials fabrication boxes, as opposed to a retail deployment paradigm. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 19:27, 27 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. A Google search for ("shop in a box") turned up lots of hits, but nothing about it as a design concept; most of them were for specific business or products, e.g. "Machine shop in a box", "Beauty shop in a box".  Refining the search by adding the purported originator's name from the article, to ("shop in a box" "gareth williams") turned up eight hits, none of which would satisfy WP:GNG.  Among them was Gareth Williams's LinkedIn page, which includes the fact that he's in Norwich, Norfolk.  The article was created by User:NorfolkBlue, whose brief edit history includes only six edits outside of this article.  This may be coincidence, but we can't rule out the possiblity that self-promotion was going on.  In any case, the absence of independent coverage makes this a fairly easy delete. — Ammodramus (talk) 04:01, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
