Someone's own essay about the matter unconnected to the writer in question. Possibly Original research as well Skysmith (talk) 10:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. We already have a pretty good article at Eureka: A Prose Poem. This is an original research/synthesis essay (for a school assignment?) that should go. Deor (talk) 13:01, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Clearly original research. Edward321 (talk) 14:04, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: Original research. Schuym1 (talk) 20:35, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete not an encyclopedia article. JuJube (talk) 23:12, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Author apparently is Mario Rabinowitz, and had a paper published in the IEEE Power Engineering Review ( (starting at page 24) on the Internet.  While publication in an engineering association journal (cited in article) means that this is actually NOT original research, it may be a copyright violation, since the IEEE Review is the owner of the article, from which this appears to be copied word-for-word.  Somewhat interesting idea, though it strikes me as something that would be mentioned in one of the Poe aritcles. Mandsford (talk) 12:47, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Odd that the ref in the article (presumably written by Rabinowitz) says that its print publication was in the IEEE Power Engineering Review (1993), whereas the linked site where Rabinowitz himself uploaded the PDF to the Web says that it was published in the Journal of New Energy (2001).

 * Comment The paper of reference 3 was published in both the Journal of New Energy(2001) and in the IEEE Power Engineering Review (1993) by invitation of the Editors and without the requirement of copyright by the respective journals.  The later publication was used as the reference of this paper in the arXiv, as they permit only one reference for a given paper.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mario715 (talk • contribs) 13:48, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
