[edit] Santa barbara ceramic design

  • Advertising. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 18:32, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, thousands of their pieces have changed hands in secondary markets, and many California glassworks are culturally encyclopedic. This article is helpful. Wyss 19:07, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Title capitalization needs correcting, though. Wyss 19:08, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, I emailed the author and he says he doesn't care. Wyss 23:49, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)
The fact that there might be an article worth writing about this company has no bearing on the fact that the CURRENT "article" is a rather blatant advert. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 23:02, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • I trust Wyss... but if you need more, 8810 web hits for the name as a string, only one Usenet hit but it's from 1999 and calls it "the famous Santa Barbara Ceramic Design company". 5 results on ebay.com at the moment; the auctions ending today are $177 and $189 already. Notable collectible art label. Keep. Samaritan 20:41, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • Now I notice the article is signed and bears a copyright notice. Somebody should email the creator to ask for its release under GFDL then cleanup, or write one afresh. Samaritan 20:43, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
