Giant advertisement that has little to do with silk. Prof. Squirrel (talk) 11:08, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The ad is removable. I removed it. I don't know if the silk industry in Kerala is notable, but in many other states in India it is quite notable. --(AfadsBad (talk) 16:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC))[reply]

Delete The article is close to an essay and is sourced only to a blog entry. Any substantial content on silk industries in Kerala could be added to Silk in the Indian subcontinent but would really need reliable references first - perhaps this, but it is more an announcement of intent in 2006 than a statement of what has been actually achieved.
