[edit] Tracked Triangular Wheel

Tracked Triangular Wheel (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

A new vehicle locomotion mechanism written up by one of its designers. Pure original research. No references because no-one has referred to it yet. See the author's website for more pictures. (I do note that the author completely re-wrote the article after a prod. Unfortunately the problem is the subject not the quality of the article.) -- RHaworth 08:08, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

• Delete on the face of it this is a non-starter without references, paper or otherwise. It might be something one day but right now, as it stands this article is promo material and not much more. Dick G 08:48, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Don't know if it's OR but it's certainly unsourced and unverifiable. Thin Arthur 11:38, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete I have several different complaints about this article. It seems to be OR. There are no references from secondary sources to this material. There is no historical information about this kind of device, which I do not believe was invented by the gentleman described in the article. Therefore, I believe this article is an example of bad scholarship as well. This article appears to be a vehicle for self-promotion of some idea that is hoped to have commercial potential, which is contrary to some Wikipedia principles and rules. Therefore, delete this thing. If a much much longer scholarly article that included this material with many more historical details, and about 30 or more references, was written, then it might be suitable. But as it stands, it is NOT appropriate for Wikipedia.--Filll 15:49, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
