[edit] Drum wrench

Delete... WikiDictionary at best. Totally non-notable and non-expandable topic. Most of the text discusses Operator Training and Safety 'stuff'. IMHO, this is a joke article, or possibly an Advert trying hard to present the last line with the phrase 'Man Tool'. In comparison see: http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=6970&productId=40554&R=40554 Fabartus 01:48, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep This article seems like it has potential to expand much further and improve. тəzєті 07:11, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with drum, partially redundant. Radiant_>|< 09:57, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep I created this article to be the first in a series of articles about esoteric tools. There is still much more I could write about this tool, so it could be expanded. I am not trying to advertise for a product, and i guess you guys don't like the "man tool" business, but it is a correct slang version for a drum wrench. User:Garfield 686
  • Keep, real tool, better separate from drum. Kappa 12:40, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, as per Kappa. One of a series of specialized wrenches. DialUp 13:33, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge per Radiant. --Xcali 15:59, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep per Kappa. Its a wrench, not a drum. Don't merge. DS1953 17:05, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge to Wrench#Specialized_wrenches. Manufacturers of these things have less information than this on their websites. A lot of this article is nonsense; "Considered by many to be the standard in drum opening technology, the 168 is quality constructed in the USA and needs almost no service." how can a this wrench require service? It has no moving parts! --Robojames 18:08, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Prejudicial Comment - The user "User:Garfield 686" is not a log in name. I'm inclusionist by nature, but the article has very little Fact and a lot of fluff. As I sit here, I have three drums less than 100 ft from me. The whole arty is nonsensical. If it were expandable, why has it not changed? Fabartus 23:48, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • Comment-2 - Since nominating this article, I expanded the Drum (Container) by about eightfold. But it itself needs merged with 44 gallon drum (Brittish) or we should keep both since the idioms vary so much. I just added both links to the above as see alsos [[User:Fabartus| User:fabartus || TalktoMe]] 03:29, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
