[edit] Merge proposal
Support The present Textile industry article is a rather poor one. This is quite comprehensive, but there may be something in the other that could usefully be added to this one. There is also a wider-ranging article Textiles, which should remain. Peterkingiron 22:38, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
I see this article as more of how textiles are actually made, while textile industry has the possiblity of talking more about how the industry has changed over time, what it entails, and less on the how the actual manufacture of textiles is done. Loggie 22:57, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Support The current artilcle is not very informative, especially with info about the history of it. Mabey somebody could merge a timeline or some history into it? --Wavemaster447 22:32, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] How Many?
The three main types of fibers include natural vegetable fibers, man-made fibers, synthetic fibers and protein based fibers. I don't know whether to change to 4 or rewrite to indicate the 3? akaDruid 16:35, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- I suppose the issue here is how we classify types of fibers- I think the groups here are supposed to be vegtable, protien, and man-made (of which synthetic is a subclass). But with different examples of each listed, I´m not sure what to do.
- Also- the spelling in this article seems to vary between British and American- that should probably be fixed... Loggie 09:20, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Removal of history stuff
Okay, so I removed the historical bits about Peter Wilson, not because I don't like him or anything, but because I think that this article is not really about the history of how these things came to be, but the current how they are done. Thoughts? There is probably an article where this would fit in very well... Loggie 09:05, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
