[edit] Plasmagnetic Levitation

Plasmagnetic Levitation (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Purported phenomenon seems to be made up by one company (HoverTech) which seems to produce little more than vaporware/pseudoscience and has no notable refrences outside of said company and no existence in the scientific literature. Deglr6328 02:49, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete - only 42 non-wiki ghits. I also searched the preprints on arxiv.org and found zilch. Utterly fails WP:V. MER-C 03:21, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

    • What on earth does "use usefulness" mean?--Deglr6328 06:11, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Hmmm well that's an argument I hadn't considered... hmmm... I'm having a hard time coming up with a rebuttal to that one... :p Herostratus 04:53, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. I suspect that this is a hoax, and that their website is also a hoax. Not only are they going to turn air into plasma - which is, basically, material so hot that individual atoms come apart - using ultraviolet radiation (whoooo!), but they are working on an airship that is lighter than air because it contains a vacuum. I just... no. Make them go away, please. Herostratus 04:48, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete looks like hoax, and links to site are all pretty questionable. SkierRMH,06:18, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Strong, Fast Delete - WP:HOAX (it's a scam! X-Ray goggles from the back of scouting magazines, etc.) /Blaxthos 16:38, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
