Compromise spacing effect

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

See also Articles for deletion/Modified Bragg diffraction. This seems to be another WP:POVFORK by the same editor, created to promote his website and self-published book. It also says nothing about what the "Compromise spacing effect" is, but instead seems to be just a collection of research results, with the supposed article topic an excuse to put them on WP.

 * Delete This is an easy one, you don't actually have to be an expert on this subject to see that the article is exactly what the nom says: a POV-pushing FORK. --Crusio (talk) 20:39, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. Material of article is unencyclopedic and appears to be mainly OR and OS and not yet to have attained mainstream acceptance. I make no comment on whether the material in the article is scientifically valid. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:28, 12 January 2010 (UTC).
 * Weak delete / merge per my comment in the analogous Articles for deletion/Modified Bragg diffraction. -- Cycl o pia talk  18:12, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - the material might be real, but does look like a re-publication, on WP, a single-hand developed theory. COI is a strong factor here. The article content is based on self-citation of papers published in minor journals (there is a few well-respected citations here, but they only support the general notion of quasicrystal).

 * Week delete – Although the article isn't that poorly written, it looks like a COI (Bourdillona (the user who created the article) and Bourdillon, A.J. (the author of the first three citations)). — MC10 ( T • C • GB •L)  05:36, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
