The result was   redirect to Manicure. Rather than userfying it, I have gone with Colonel Warden's suggestion; however since the problem is OR and other issues, I have redirected rather than merging. Black Kite (t) (c) 23:51, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Types of nail care tools

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Blatant WP:ESSAY and/or WP:OR. No sources cited. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 10:03, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Userfy. I could see this sort of information being encyclopedic, but not in its current form. It should be pointed out the article creator is a new editor; I'm of the opinion that we should assume good faith and let the user add sources and make other changes to make it eligible for inclusion at a later point.  elektrik SHOOS  10:06, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * The article discusses tools, each of which already has an article. If this article is kept, isn't it just a WP:LIST? &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 10:08, 17 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Userfy. I was going to say delete as WP:NOTHOWTO, it's written rather as an instructional guide (frequent use of "you" and so on). Category:Nail care seems to cover navigation to the specific articles for Nail clippers etc (which are not linked in this article anyway) and really it's not much more than a WP:LIST. No incoming our outgoing Wikilinks, which in itself is not a reason for deletion, but suggests this topic is not really needed as such. Unlikely search term. I can see, however, the merit in userfying this as described above. Si Trew (talk) 10:14, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * If this is nothing more than a list, and there's already a related category, what are we userfying? &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 10:23, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * List articles can (indeed must) have useful summary information. Otherwise we'd have no list articles at all. Si Trew (talk) 12:46, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem worth userfying. Either we turn it into a list right away and withdraw the AfD, or we do something else. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 13:25, 17 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Userfy. The topic is definitely notable, but the current tone of the article is utterly unencyclopedic. Should be moved to nail care. --  Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 18:08, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I prefer that suggestion to turning it into a list. Of course, if it's in user space, it's up to the user what to do with it anyway. Si Trew (talk) 20:08, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * If this is a new user (and it is), I don't see how userfying will help. Will the user even know what to do to make it good? &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 20:22, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep and wikify. Interesting article. scope_creep (talk) 20:59, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete If each of the tools here already has an article, and the entire contents of this article are inappropriate for Wikipedia in terms of WP:HOWTO, WP:ESSAY and WP:OR, there is not point in keeping this. What use (to either the user or to Wikipedia) is userifying it?  Peacock (talk) 20:38, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge into Manicure which covers the same topic. Colonel Warden (talk) 17:23, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
