[edit] Binford Tools

Binford Tools (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Delete - no reliable sources establish the real-world notability of this fictional company. At most it merits a sentence in the article for the TV show. Otto4711 15:56, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete No secondary sources to establish notability or provide secondary sources. Jay32183 16:30, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Applying WP:FICT here, and it doesn't exist outside of Home Improvement or for that matter Toy Story. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 17:37, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Tool Time or Home Improvement and merge a sentence or two into the target. Pinball22 17:41, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Smerge and redirect to Tool Time. The bit about the real-world branded tools is interesting and rings a bell but I can't find anything to source it. It's a plausible search term, though, and Binford Tools "memorabilia" like baseball caps are occasionally seen in the DIY world. --Dhartung | Talk 20:17, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep it. It can be improved. There is a page that lists some (all?) of the 'Binford tools' that appear in the show, as well as there are pages that show the use in other films. There are pictures of a 'Binford' toolbox and a logo. I just don't know how to get it all together (put a photo here; may I do that at all...) and if I get into it and 'improve' the article, do you really keep it? I'd rather waste my time on something productive.
    • The issue is that there aren't any sources. Effort will not fix that problem. Jay32183 01:11, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect per Pinball22. The fact that there is a page loaded with fancruft does not justify it existing here. JuJube 15:59, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
