• Delete - hoax, or at best, original research, so unsuitable for WP. --Oscarthecat 11:53, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, looks like original research and if it isn't, it's unverifiable with no references given. (I'm guessing the creator User:Marlsda is the same person as the D.S. Marlin mentioned in the article.) - Bobet 11:56, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete hoax, unverifable. --Terence Ong 12:07, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Hoax, but Hilarious, I'd hate to see it go! —This user has left wikipedia 12:59 2006-01-23

• Delete, possible BJAODN candidate. "Newton did so in an a priori fashion." Newton was THAT SMART. Gives a whole new meaning to "finishing before you begin." KrazyCaley 17:21, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi folks. Sorry I did not read the "no original research" restriction before posting this entry to Wikipedia. The hododyne is not a hoax but it is original research and new terminology so I guess it has to get the axe. I can verify the hododyne if a Wikipedia editor in astronomy and physics is willing to contact me. The proof of the hododyne and its role in celestial mechanics is a rather large file of 3 mb but I can send it if it would help to get the hododyne entry here. I'm a big fan of Wikipedia and completely understand the need for strict criteria. - D.S. Marlin, Marlsda@aol.com
