Immittance

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Reads like a WP:DICTDEF with a side dish of WP:OR, poorly referenced (to a primary source with a claim that this is where the term was coined). Notability is unclear. The term is used in various works, but this article likely requires a total rewrite (WP:TNT). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:45, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Can you give any reasoning for your !vote? I'm very confused. JML1148 (Talk &#124; Contribs) 06:54, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I believe that the article has the potential to be helpful if it were rewritten, given the fact that it is a topic used by several fields as noted by Elemimele. Additionally, I am interested in topics like these and could be involved in research and the recreation of the article. WhichUser  AmI  10:43, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep, the article is badly referenced and very incomplete, but the briefest of Google searches reveals that the term is widely used in audiometry but also in other fields. AfD isn't clean-up, and the article isn't so dreadful that it can't be a foundation for improvement. Elemimele (talk) 10:31, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep A simple before search shows several secondary sources discussing acoustic immittance, important in audiometry:, , and . The concept is also used in electrochemistry and electrical engineering: , , and (a primary source but with a good historical intro. The topic is well above threshold for wikipedia notability. The article itself is a poorly referenced stub, but the content is fine as far as it goes. A notable subject and a stub with the WP:POTENTIAL for improvement leads to an obvious keep recommendation. --  17:47, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep A widely recognized concept that should be described on WP. Neither impedance nor admittance is a suitable redirect target. catslash (talk) 18:54, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Withdraw. Given the comments above, including a possibility that User:WhichUserAmI may improve this article, and sources found by others, I am happy to withdraw this AfD. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:24, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
