Aabdoz: underwater vehicle design

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Entirely unreferenced article with an odd title. I couldn't find what "aabdoz" is, so redirecting or merging in my opinion isn't the best option. Brandmeistertalk  17:24, 1 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete – "aabdoz" appears to be the Urdu word for "submarine" or "underwater" . The first paragraph was deleted earlier as a copyright violation, and the History section has also been taken straight from the ROV COMMITTEE reference. That leaves only the formulas. I wasn't able to find most of it, but the "Integral Approach" section is copied straight from here -- UnifiedPropulsion7. My guess is that the formulas are copied from a book. It might be a valid article if all of this was rewritten and referenced, but per policy the only choice seems to be delete. (Very similar content has also been added to  wikibooks.) – Margin1522 (talk) 18:27, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment I can't quite tell what this article is about. I have notified User:Sameer264 (one of the major contributors) of this AfD to see if he can explain the article's merits to us. Piboy51 (talk) 15:05, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
