The result was delete. Really just an essay, but astounding it lasted a decade. Given the age I'd love to redirect it somewhere, but I can't find a good target. If anyone can think of one, please let me know and I'll restore/retarget. ~ Amory  (u • t • c) 00:49, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Classical and quantum conductivity

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article has no clear purpose. Either it points to be a historical retelling of electrical conductivity formulas, an introduction to quantum conductivity, or a comparison article between quantum and classical phenomena. Either way it does no reach its purpose. The article is incomplete and it does not discuss the inaccuracies of a classical model, aside from using a few analogies. It is only linked by other articles as a curiosity. Plus no sources. It may be improved, but we might just do better without it. MaoGo (talk) 16:43, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete for reasons stated by MaoGo; I can just barely conceive of a worthwhile article on this topic, but it would be better written starting from scratch. --Steve (talk) 20:40, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete or WP:TNT. Reads like an undergrad essay. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:35, 23 March 2018 (UTC).
 * TNT While the article's content is a mangling of different concepts, there is genuinely enough material for an article to be made here. I would be willing to look at doing the TNT if time permits. Sources should not be hard too find. Acebulf (talk) 04:46, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
 * We could TNT it, but we would have to agree on how we can handle an article like that. Personally, I would prefer to prioritize the rest of the solid state physics articles. --MaoGo (talk) 18:38, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
