I have to commend the poster on their ambition, but this article is impossible.

Delete. Something for the categorisation system. —

Delete. What exactly makes a material "commonly known", anyway? --

...or a "material" for that matter? Delete.

"Materials are inputs to production or manufacturing. They are often raw - that is unprocessed, but are sometimes processed before being used in more advanced production processes.", at least according to
Materials and
Category:Materials. —

Quilt?
Snow? I dont understand their apparently eclectic definition.

I didn't say this article adheres to that definition. :-) —

keep; but limit to the specific subset of Category:Materials that _are_ well known.

Please define that. It is inherently POV. Well-known by whom? By chemists? By chefs? By a general cross-section of the world's population? —
