Black Diesel

Page cites no reliable source for the subject matter; title itself is just a neologism; with the how-to content removed, what remains is mixed factoids already found other other related pages. I did search for reliable sources that support the topic and found none. E8 (talk) 07:40, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Addendum: Notability has not been established for this topic. Googling produces Youtube videos and references to a cannabis variant, but nothing reliable related to the subject.--E8 (talk) 23:07, 11 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete, a dictionary like definition that brings no real context or new knowledge to light. Could just as easily exist as a redirect to a level 4 header under Diesel, or even as a brief mention in the main article. The Illusive Man(Contact) 19:50, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

CommentRecomend not to delete page for the following reasons: Page has source quoted from chemistry text book. "Organic Chemistry"/ Francis A. Carey & Robert M. Giuliano, New York.

CommentFuel itself is described as a nickname of "black diesel" and is infact describes a cultural popular formula and process. It is a popular cultural nickname and is very abundenlty discussed the world over through many mediums. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.103.168.4 (talk) 21:08, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

CommentCandidly wondering whats the sudden modivation to focus on page deletion so aggresivly. Actions seem consistant with growing number of products reaching the market that are using the popular concept. Seems it will cause competion over used oil and offer fuel alternatives to consumers, ever so slightly breaking fuel suppliers monopolies.


 * Comment This anonymous user is edit-warring and refusing to discuss the problems with the page. I have commented at length here regarding specific issues with this page.  Please stop with the WP:FRINGE conspiratorial nonsense.--E8 (talk) 21:39, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Comment User E8 is erasing the content thats been there for a few years over and over. If he requests a discussion, it is not his right to delete the content that is to be discussed. I request E8 to be blocked fron the page. There seems to be a serious bias in connection to his actions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.103.168.4 (talk) 21:54, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - I didn't find any sources. Other than black, diesel, and fuel, the article does not contain any other clues on where to look for other sources.Doesn't meet WP:GNG.
