Waterfuse

Procedural nomination on behalf of new user Wordy24, who placed an AfD template on this article but couldn't complete the procedure. I can certainly see why he wanted to nominate this as its notability seems quite iffy. Prodded in 2012 with the following rationales:

The term "waterfuse" apparently refers only to a single manufacturer's product, not to a generic device name. As such, this article falls more into the category of advertising. Although this device seems enormously useful, it does not appear to be very notable.

It is a trademarked name for another product and hasn't demonstrated independent notability

(Curiously, the article actually became more SPAMmy on deprodding.) Sideways713 (talk) 22:33, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as promotion of a non-notable product. I ran a search on all the academic databases to which I have access and found no evidence that this is anything other than a product. Moreover, a "water fuse" may refer to something else entirely (see US Patent application 20,120,186,328). There's also some beauty product going by this name. Google testing for waterfuse (without quotes) only reveals 323 hits. Anyhow, there's no indication of notability here. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 23:07, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Mendaliv. Products can be notable, but there is no evidence that this one is. Spinning Spark 23:44, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
