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

Contested prod. Rationale was No reliable sources to establish notability. None availible via google. Does not meet requirements of WP:N or WP:CORP. Parent company is on AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dunlop Manufacturing. Eluchil404 03:21, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, unless some more good sources can be provided, then I might change my mind. Realkyhick 06:08, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Lack of sourcing should be addressed by adding sources, not deleting the article. The product itself is extremely notable and very significant as it is a replacement-product for an entire line of products that were made from an endangered animal's body parts.

  • Keep if we can verify that this is not just mylar. I use the picks. They're pretty much what we call "mylar picks," and we never actually refer to them as "Tortex." Otherwise, without verification that this is some miraculous third substance, what this article is about is a brand rather than a substance and an object rather than an invention.

  • Merge into Guitar pick and/or Dunlop Manufacturing. The information is legitimate, but I'm not sure it makes sense having its own article. Crunch 14:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Utgard Loki. The article may be misnamed, but the subject is notable. -- Chairman S. Talk Contribs 05:59, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
