Un-needed personal essay on clothing and fashion brands. TrulyBlue (talk) 17:30, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong delete Rambling personal essay. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 17:51, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Not really an essay so much as a bizarre collection of definitions of every type of clothing ever, written by someone either just learning English or very very confused. Example entry: "Swim-wear: It is a clothing worn for swimming. It includes bikinies." After deletion, suggest a redirect to Designer clothing.

• Delete. There is actually a lot of copyrighted text in there, so speedy delete for copyvio may be appropriate. For example the snippets about the designers are lifted from other sites, for example: [1], [2].  LinguistAtLarge  19:00, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to designer clothing per above. Plausible search term. It is not only very unencyclopedic, it also contains many copyvios. MuZemike (talk) 20:22, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect. per MuZemike. I agree that there are many copyvios in the article but not enough to meet WP:CSD. Jonathan321 (talk) 21:36, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
