Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 21:17, 6 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep No valid reason given for deletion.   The rules clearly state you shouldn't delete a list because you prefer categories.   List are always more useful than categories since they allow more information to be listed.  Category:Home appliances exist, so this is a perfect valid navigational list.  D r e a m Focus 22:18, 6 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I think the problem is establishing a selection criteria.  I could probably cross well over the thousand pages mark for things that could plausibly be considered a home appliance.  Everything from the Mangle to the Smart speaker to the George Foreman Grill .  Don't forget brands too - your Magic Bullets , your Sodastream or your Vitamix .  If a home appliance is just any kind of powered tool intended for consumer use, then let's make sure we cover our ground - the Treadmill , Shake weight , and any other fitness device ever sold on an infomercial are all fair game.  Everyone needs to do some odd jobs around the house with their Electric screwdriver .  It's too broad and I'm not sure how to make it a comprehensive article.  Open to responses, currently leaning delete.  BrigadierG ( talk ) 01:05, 7 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] A reference for where a reliable source called an item a "home appliance" could be required.  D r e a m Focus 05:25, 7 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I just turned the article into a table and found reliable source references for some things listed on it.   It also list what year the item was commercially available for the average home.  D r e a m Focus 05:47, 7 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Home appliance ; a separate page is not needed.  It would also duplicate Small appliance , Major_appliance#Types , and List of cooking appliances , so it's superfluous.  The missing examples above seem irrelevant though, the list should have criteria that excludes brands, but would include blender and Soda machine (home appliance) .  I don't think exercise machines are considered appliances, but either way there are other pages that can or do list home appliances so this one is not also necessary.

I don't think a merge is needed - all of the things Reywas92 mentions are already linked at home appliance .  * Pppery * it has begun... 03:06, 21 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Maybe the list should be restricted to home appliances that get asked about in censuses?  2A02:1810:BC3A:D800:B5DB:C733:E510:202F ( talk ) 16:19, 24 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
