This seems to be a rather arbitrary and unmaintainable list article. Why these groups? How were they classified? Why not just use any of the other groupings found on the Lists of foods? All of the subset of fibers, fuels, etc are already found on those pages. I honestly think this was a solution looking for a problem. Primefac (talk) 13:56, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as my discussion at Talk:List of agricultural products:
"As stated at Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists#Appropriate topics for lists "Lists that are too general or too broad in scope have little value"
Frankly, I think you should abandon this list and ask for it to be deleted, as, unless I have misunderstood your intentions, it appears "too broad in scope" and will become unmanageably large as people keep adding subdivisions, down to individual products."
The article creator User:Fmadd is the only significant contributor, and has since been indeffed, so effectively the article has been abandoned. - Arjayay (talk) 14:56, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - This is an indiscriminate list, no selection criteria are stated. Exemplo347 (talk) 16:10, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. This list could be enlarged to include every land-based cultivated or harvested biological product on the planet. Narky Blert (talk) 22:09, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
