Non notable company where tags have been removed and appears to be no more than an advert? Paste (talk) 11:28, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Note from author on my talk page :- I thought I would try and add woodhead as thay are a useful source of scientific information and give a short description of who thay are. Sorry its my first page on Wikipedia and maybe I have copied too much information from their site and made it too sales like? How should this have been written? I have found quite a few institutions and organisations listed, which provide useful scientific information furthering knowlege not listed on Wikipedia.

 * Comment Article changed out of all recognition, now seems fine! Paste (talk) 17:40, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems notable to me.  Plenty of third party sources to base the article on:      Sure, the article needs cleanup.  That's not a reason to delete it. JulesH (talk) 14:42, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * If it's a copyvio or spam, it certainly is a reason to delete. Read the deletion policy. MuZemike  ( talk ) 19:14, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as copyvio from http://www.woodheadpublishing.com/en/info.aspx?pageid=4 and associated pages . When I see such an article without a link to the corporate website, I always look for it & about half the time its copyvio. Try again, after looking a pages for other publishers to see what is needed. The association with the IOMP and the Textile Institute are enough to show importance.

 * Speedy delete (G11/G12) — if the author is not the copyright holder, then it certainly is a copyvio as DGG noted above. If so, it would certainly fall under G11 for blatant advertisement/spam. MuZemike  ( talk ) 19:17, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete - I added a G12. &mdash; neuro(talk) 21:48, 21 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. I added some references and removed the copyvio. -- Eastmain (talk) 22:28, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep the revised version is satisfactory, and the publisher is sufficiently notable. Eastmain, thanks for rescuing it. DGG (talk) 23:24, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - Revised version is just peaches, good enough HEY job. &mdash; neuro(talk) 13:58, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep — Dang, Eastmain, you did it again! MuZemike  ( talk ) 17:24, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
