Mobile pedestal[edit]

per WP:NOTDICDEF Arx Fortis (talk) 04:56, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: WP:NOTDICDEF does not really apply to this, as the article includes significantly more than a dictionary definition. Also, dicdefs should be expanded, if possible, not deleted. However, this article has no sources and the notability is questionable.--Mars2035 (talk) 05:13, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I may not be a disinterested party, since I wrote this article - but what sources would be acceptable? I could probably find a number of commercial web sites of manufacturers of this item that refer to it, depict it, or describe it - but I seem to recall reading that commercial web sites are questionable as sources. Would that suffice? It might be difficult to find a source other than that - some things just don't get written about much, but may nonetheless be factual. As to notability: well, how do you decide what's notable? This is definitely a known and quite common item in the storage/furniture field, and notable doesn't necessarily seem to mean "well-known to people generally". I may not be entirely disinterested - but I don't see grounds for deleting this article. M.J.E. (talk) 17:03, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to filing cabinet since it is a small filing cabinet with wheels. -- Whpq (talk) 14:35, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per above: I'll do it if nobody else does it soon. Bearian (talk) 17:56, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this is purely a dicdef, but the term may be unfamiliar, as it sounds like British usage. As noted above, it's just a wheeled storage cart, and they're made out of all sorts of materials. Therefore I don't think there's any value in a merge. MSJapan (talk) 20:34, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
