- Delete Appears to be an article about a home made oven type device. Googling 'hot box' does not return any results that match the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nathan Orth (talk • contribs) 00:03, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Just because it's not in google doesn't make it not real. Heck, there's the phrase 'pictures speak louder than words', and the article has two or three. If you're so sure that you know what's right, go ahead and delete it. I'm not going to fight this fight. LP-mn (talk) 03:12, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Anyone with an internet connection can edit Wikipedia, because of this - in order to create a high quality encyclopaedia - the content of articles must be based on information from reliable sources. Can you provide any sources such as books, newspaper or magazine articles, etc. which could be used to verify the information in the article? Guest9999 (talk) 22:01, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The reliability of the references I found seem to be lacking to some agree, but Nathan's Googling could use some finesse. I searched and found several pages: [1][2][3][4]. What I found suggests that such a cabinet is not used to heat food but to either store epoxy or dry this substance when for example used on skis. Perhaps more details can be found on reliable skiing or construction websites (or in related magazines) with more detailed keywords - Mgm|(talk) 23:25, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep I think the subject m sure the article is real, but the improvised nature of the apparatus will make it hard to find references. (additionally, some microwave ovens are now made using supplemental heat from halogen light bulbs [5], [6].) DGG (talk) 04:56, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Seems that the subject is real, just uncommon and very improvised. Definitely article-worthy though. Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :D 01:54, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
