Talk:Multimachine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] AfD

Note that an earlier version of this article was deleted by Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Multimachine. However, the entire content of that version was:

“	An inexpensive multi-purpose home-made machine that is built around engine blocks. most multimachines consist of 2 engine blocks,some pipe,import bearings, an import cross-feed table, a motor and scissors jacks.It can drill in 3 different ways, horizontal mill, chop-saw and surface grind and much more.Designed and marketed by Pat Delany at http://this.was.a.spam.link/ and perfected by the constant inflow of ideas at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/this.was.also.a.spam.link	„

So I am not going to delete this new version immediately.

But it needs considerable improvement. The main thing is "third party" references, ie. has any news medium commented on this project? How many of these machines have actually been produced? Is this article just spam for a Yahoo group? -- RHaworth 07:08, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Response

The Multimachine was mentioned in a Make Magazine website article on "open source" projects. That's how it came to my attention, as well as a lot of other peoples'. It's not the New York Times, but it's a reasonable citation. Nils Davis 18:13, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
