Old film processing[edit]

Article has had sources tag since 10/2006 with no updates. Furthermore, an article such as this would read more as a 'How To' even if sources were added. Eddie.willers (talk) 11:58, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NWeak Delete - this reads like a how to and like the nominator stated, it hasn't been updated since it's been tagged. Wikipedia is not a how to guide.--S_RX 13:57, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Take away the WP:HOWTO and you have a notable subject. Let it stay stubbed for a few more hundred years for all I care. --brew crewer (yada, yada) 23:33, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the article reads like an essay, with only very vague descriptions and imprecise terminology which is pretty useless and unencyclopaedic. What precise little useable information is left can be merged to Film_processing. Ohconfucius (talk) 06:17, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unsourced "how-to" which provides scant information. Edison (talk) 18:45, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - A how-to, not an encyclopedia article. Unsourced. Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 22:33, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. It's a how-to, and a poor one, conflating the perils of (say) ancient Verichrome and ancient Kodachrome, and managing to say virtually nothing about either. -- Hoary (talk) 02:53, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
