This article appears to originally have been created as an advertisement for a specific vendor's process. With the removal of the spammy content, the article now seems to lack a subject. I would recommend it for speedy deletion under WP:CSD#A1 except that it has had too many hands in it to really qualify for speedy. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 17:28, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rename. Glass painting is a notable subject that doesn't have its own article and should. Szzuk (talk) 21:03, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Yes, but there is already an article on that topic at Reverse glass painting. This article covers a significantly different topic, I believe. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 21:35, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge. The information on 'glass paint' and 'reverse glass painting' should be merged into a new article - 'glass painting'. Its not clear if a delete or redirect would be best for this afd. Its an awkward tidy up. Szzuk (talk) 06:38, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This article is an artifact from an attempt at advertising. Jminthorne (talk) 06:31, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Merge: Article should be merged with the appropriate article. White Trillium (talk) 03:27, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete...it's still spammy. The content in this article and the content at Back painted glass (also worth deleting) have been created by Chrissommer36 (talk · contribs) (presumably the new account of Glasspaint (talk · contribs), now blocked as a COI username). These accounts and IPs 74.233.95.207 (talk · contribs) [note these two edits] & 98.64.173.173 (talk · contribs) are heavily focused on the promotion of certain links, which may need to be blacklisted, also targeting Glass coloring and color marking. I think there is probably room for an article on the art of painting on glass, something with which Reverse glass painting could be merged, but I think it should start fresh. As this doesn't provide any reliable sources, it's merely uncited advertorial content. — Scientizzle 19:03, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
