[edit] Electromagnetic suspension

Original resaerch. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. -- RHaworth 13:01, 2005 July 20 (UTC)

• Delete article as written describes a device which has not yet even been demonstrated practical -Harmil 13:48, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

redirect per Carnildo's sugestion would be fine too. Pavel Vozenilek 23:48, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

• Question: isn't this what the Japanese monorail uses? And if it is, can we redirect this there? -Splash 21:56, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
  • It isn't a monorail, it is a magnetic levitation train. That article uses the exact phrase "Electro-Magnetic Suspension" so I will change my vote to redirect. -- RHaworth 23:30, 2005 July 20 (UTC)
  • Perhaps should redirect to magnetic levitation instead, since the general principle applies to more than just trains. --Buuneko 23:56, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. What's being described sounds like magnetic levitation being applied to building automobile suspensions. It's got exactly the same problems that a simple coil spring suspension does: undamped oscillation leading to motion sickness. Nothing particularly original there, but not worthy of an article. Might be suitable for a redirect to magnetic levitation. --Carnildo 23:38, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
