Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Oven rack guard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hey there BSHUL, I figured I'd take the time to explain why I feel your article is pitchy. I'll present my case to you in italics within the article.


Cool Touch Oven Rack Guard article
Ovens and stoves, throughout history, have something in common; they will burn the person who comes in contact with their hot metal surfaces, for instance, the oven rack's front edge. ( This obvious statement seems like a tactic to grab the readers attention. It's unnecessary ) Devices to protect the hands, such as oven gloves, have been developed, but need to be used consistently, to be effective; so people still get burned.( in this sentence you discount similar devices, setting up your device as a better solution) In 2004, a device was developed by Burt Shulman of Wappingers Falls, NY, called the Cool Touch Oven Rack Guard, which is a fabric strip that attaches along the front edge of the oven rack and stays in the oven.(I have no problem here, except that the deleted article's title "oven rack guard" is generic, while the article itself is specific to your product ) If a person touches it, even at 500 deg. F., they will not be burned.( The next bit about Nomex, makes this "wow" statement redundant )The fabric is made from a modern synthetic fiber called Nomex - which can withstand 500 deg. F. temperatures and has both low thermal conductivity Thermal conductivity and Thermal mass. These material properties reduce the heat transferred to the skin, during the "touch', so no burn results.
