[edit] Dyson tree

Doesn't seem like it should have its own article. - 203.134.166.99 07:37, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep - why not? Vizjim 08:15, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Could be a fine article, after some attention, if its verifiable. Jkelly 08:20, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, per Jkelly. Proposer hasn't made a case for deletion. Stephen Turner 08:30, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Not only is it a known named idea, it has been extensively used in science fiction. Article should be expanded. --JahJah 08:38, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Expansion should start with a source on where Dyson first proposed it rather than how Sci-fi has run with the idea. Marskell 12:12, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Comment - Hmmm, an article about a hypothetical genetically modified tree that can grow on a comet? I want some of whatever Dyson is smoking.

No vote, but if this stands, nobody better complain when I post an article about Isotope's Lounger a hypothetical La-Z-Boy that pops into existance due to a Quantum fluctuation... complete with beer and chips.--Isotope23 17:16, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and expand. Somewhat notable in both science and SF. Does Isotope's Lounger include a beverage pocket in the armrest? Barno 19:00, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep i see no reason to delete this article.--Alhutch 23:07, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, of course. Needs some more content, but certainly by no means obscure or non-notable. Rsynnott 00:23, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, because Freeman Dyson was da bomb, yo! If he came up with it, it's gold. -- BD2412 ^talk 02:42, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and expand, notable enough. Shauri 19:57, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Dyson is more important than Isotope23 :p ··gracefool |☺ 07:55, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and Expand or Merge with Freeman Dyson, notable enough as it can be already referred to in the Freeman Dyson article as an existing theory. Piecraft 13:51, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Conditional Keep - if verified. -- Arthur Rubin 01:21, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
