Talk:Antique Rugs

This article should not be deleted as it contains all factual, appropriate information concerning antique rugs.

Article already exists[edit]

We already have an article on persian carpets, and this article talks almost exclusively about perian rugs. It's also unsourced and presents original research. I didn't recomend the speedy, but if it somehow survives speedy, I will be the first to PROD it.Cathardic (talk) 17:32, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This doesn't qualify as a speedy deletion candidate. I'd recommend a merge to Persian rug. Karanacs (talk) 18:17, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd second that. This appears to be an article about Antique Persian rugs, so the title is a bit misleading. Also, this appears to be largely original research or synthesis, so a redirect might be a more apt solution. --Bfigura ^(talk) 19:23, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, redirect. Grsz¹¹ 19:47, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I second the notion of redirect.--Coldplay Expért ^{Let's talk} 21:44, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article Does Not Already Exist[edit]

This article does not already exist. I want to publish an article on ANTIQUE Persian carpets; an article that can be searched for as such! I do not appreciate your demeanor in questioning me.

I am willing to expand it or re-title it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Antiquerugs32 (talk • contribs) 18:50, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you do not want your writing to be edited, used, and redistributed at will, then do not submit it here. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:30, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The sentence I want to publish an article on ANTIQUE Persian carpets; an article that can be searched for as such! does not seem to convey an intention to contribute to Wikipedia. If you genuinely want to add to the depth of our information on Persian carpet, then add to and edit that article (properly sourced to reliable sources, of course. "Antique rugs" is a market segment, not a separate field of scholarship per se. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:56, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright?[edit]

Is this article merely copied form the Dictionary of Oriental Rugs ? Teapotgeorge^Talk 19:37, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not seeing that, but it does seem that the entire article is a promo for Nazmiyalantiquerugs.com, and this [1] comment sells it for me.Cathardic (talk) 19:47, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
