Proposed deletion of Energy Loop Theory


The article Energy Loop Theory has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Very tempted to speedy this as a hoax, but at the very least it's original research backed only by a reference to the author's personal website.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Energy Loop Theory. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you.

Energy Loop Theory
Oninementor, it is fine for you to want to inform people about a scientific theory but it seems that, at this time, Wikipedia is not an appropriate place for doing this. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia which merely reports what is widely published elsewhere: by scientists as well as general authors and journalists. If there are such publications you must include references in the article and do so right away. There does not presently seem to be much coverage of ELT and until there is then Wikipedia's policy is not to have an article. However, if published discussion of the theory develops in future (either endorsing it or refuting it), then an article here could be accepted. Best wishes.
