The result was delete. --Ezeu 23:41, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Neologism, moved from even more neological "THINGERPRINTS", Ghits mostly relate to automobile identification, no sources, etc. VoiceOfReason 17:25, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete google has 20 hits, appearing to be typos. This page has very poor context, and "THINGERPRINTS is a summer sensation" what is this supposed to mean? --Porqin 17:32, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete why would anyone deprod this? CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 19:39, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, maybe redirect to Vehicle identification number. Gazpacho 23:20, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep and Cleanup Rewrite — the topic is valid, I got 49,800 Google hits and 32,600 Yahoo hits for the search term "Auto Identification". The article does need dramatic cleanup. Should this be deleted, it must be clear that this deletion does not impede any future recreation. —— Eagle (ask me for help) 23:53, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The search engine hits do not relate to the topic of the article, though. They're mostly about something completely different. Again, this article was moved from the deleted THINGERPRINTS, it's still a neologism, and there are still no sources for the actual topic. VoiceOfReason 00:01, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Correct, I guess I failed to explain what was getting at. The topic of the page is valid. Granted the content as of now is some odd thing on THINGERPRINTS, but a proper article can be written on this topic. Hence the Keep and cleanup, which I now changed to rewrite. I hope that clarifies things. The topic is valid, just the article is off-topic, or is covering a very limited range of said topic. —— Eagle (ask me for help) 01:31, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, needs a rewrite though. --ForbiddenWord 15:41, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Vehicle identification number. Utter WP:VSCA crap. I don't even get what this is about, some sort of biometric ID process? Sandstein 16:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
