Edgewood Arsenal experiments

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

These experiments, if they happened at all, appear to have no coverage in reliable secondary sources and thus the topic is not sufficiently notable for WP. Alexbrn talk 16:26, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator. Other editors have found good sources (thanks everyone). Alexbrn talk 21:57, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep and clean up. I did not write this article, I was working to clean it up when I saw this. The experiments did happen and are sufficiently documented in NAS books going back to the 1980s as well as more recent academic books and memoirs. There was a lot of rubbish in the article, including a big confusion between these experiments, Project MKUltra and Project 112. There is still some, but it's not as hopeless as Operation Red Hat was, mainly because there is no edit warring going on. (Project 112 is in a similar situation where the amount of clean up required is not too great.) 86.121.18.17 (talk) 17:00, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep Article needs to be improved, but I see plenty of reliable sources, including from both the government and NBC News. A good topic and useful article. Rationale for deletion is incorrect. - Who is John Galt? ✉ 20:08, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep and improve Article is referenced, incorrect rationale as per above. Kaini (talk) 20:48, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
