[edit] Artweld

Article concerns a non-notable neologism coined by the article's creator; the article has no references other than the author's own web site. The article also serves to promote the author's commercial interests. KurtRaschke (talk) 14:28, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

As I am perhaps a bit new in participating and in fully understanding 100% of all the specific requirements and entire criteria within "Wikipedia" ... I will gladly provide any and all necessary reference, evidence as well as additional substance that I'm sure will prove this page to be both worthy and necessary in sustaining it's listing ... and should also satisfy the recent few who have suggested and/or requested that "Artweld" be deleted.

I am now in the process of compiling a variety of actual past and present documentation including highly respected local and national "Printed Publications", Professional Trade Journals, and also a segment from a widely acclaimed documentary styled and formatted Television Show that will further support the validity of my request to keep this page active and alive !

Your effort at contributing is appreciated and welcome. There are many, many articles that can use some help. However, Wikipedia is not (among other things) a place for original research. Everything contained here is to be referenced from independent, reliable sources, not primary sources (such as self-published material). If this term / process / artistic method receives coverage (journals, newspapers, books) then it would be appropriate to have an article about it. Your efforts would be welcome in any of the (literally) millions of existing articles, or, if independent coverage of this subject exists, adding it to this article.  Frank  |  talk  03:50, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
