[edit] Ion Beam Mixing

Ion Beam Mixing (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Lots of problems. It's clearly original research. It reads like an essay and an advert. And if it's not OR, then it's taken from something. WoohookittyWoohoo! 14:14, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment Basic Googling establishes that this is a legitimate topic and that the article text is not copied in toto from some online source. I'm hesitant to delete it outright, but I agree in its present form it reads like a research journal paper. Mangoe 15:36, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Based upon changes, I think we should Keep. Mangoe 18:38, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong keep — article has now been wikified, linked, and referenced (by yours truly). From the number of independent sources google comes up with, the topic is clearly not OR. The wikilinking should provide better context. Adressing the "advert" issue required little more than removing the peacock word "novel". — Swpb talk contribs 18:08, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment. Gee. Make me look bad. :) I withdraw the nomination. --WoohookittyWoohoo! 11:23, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep - This reads like a description on a legitimite industrial process and not a bunch of OR. I lack enough knowledge in this are to judge notability and whether the references provided establish it. So I call for this article to be kept per Swpb and a current lack of any good reason to delete it. --EMS | Talk 02:58, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
