Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added a {{hangon}} template to an article, Kelly kettle. In order for an administrator to evaluate whether the article should be speedy deleted or not, we request that you provide a reasoning of why it should remain on the article's talk page. Thank you.

[edit] kelly kettle - protected
Because the kelly kettle and volcano kettle are brand names, they do not merit their own page. I do not support this. The item is made by several manufacturers and a brand-name page is thought of as not more than an advert and not appropriate for wikipedia. I think it would be better to have kelly kettle redirected to the storm kettle page, which is how it was. If you really really think kelly kettle deserves a page, you could create a "kelly kettle company" article, but it also may be nominated for speedy deletion. I had originally combined a seperate article on the "thermette" in storm kettle because it is a similar device.
In some countries, some brand names have become generized, e.g., aspirin, thermos, xerox, whilst in others they are still brand names. Even so, I suspect that kelly kettle and ghillie kettle are being used this way even if the brand name is trademarked. --Fremte (talk) 18:59, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
