[edit] Hoveround
Article asserts no notability; I don't think A7 covers products. Will (talk) 01:07, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- delete advertisement stub. Not necessarily opposed to article on principle tho---if it were expanded/enhanced, I could see the potential of keeping it.Balloonman 01:21, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep and rewrite to focus on the company, not the product. Hoveround Corporation easily passes WP:CORP as a major distributor of power wheelchairs. If I can find time, I'll try to rework this myself. By the way, does anyone else remember these seeing these commercials in the '90s?

- I did a quick rewrite. Still a stub, but I think notability is now more apparent. —dustmite 02:15, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Non-notable and not well-written. NHRHS2010 talk 02:18, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per bluedustmite. These things were inescapable back in the day, and they still show ads for it now. JuJube 02:31, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep sources seem to exist [1] for this to meet WP:CORP. That an article isn't well-written is a reason to improve the article, not delete it. --W.marsh 03:06, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Apparently there was a prior AFD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tom Kruse (inventor) closed by yours truly. I had forgotten entirely. --W.marsh 03:25, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep - Quite notable, who HASN'T seen those catchy Hoveround ads? ViperSnake151 03:47, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep: Notable, needs work, not deletion. - Rjd0060 04:47, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep as a search on Google turns up sufficient reliable sources. VivioFateFan (Talk, Sandbox) 04:48, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep-Rewrite notable device but in need of some editing work, right now it just sounds like a quickie ad. --DP67 (talk/contribs) 06:09, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep per dustmite. Now I'm free to see the world. Maxamegalon2000 07:26, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
