Impact spectrometer

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It is not clear that there is such a term as "impact spectrometer". Googling produces about 80% references to "electron impact spectrometer", which is a different concept, and 20% copies of this article (including the strangely spelled "sonicspctometer"). With few edits, and no incoming links, it should be deleted. Dan Griscom (talk) 02:58, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. No evidence of notability on searching. The references in the article are not relevant. Possibly some legitimate subject has been misunderstood by the article author. -- 101.119.15.68 (talk) 08:02, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
 * delete. No evidence. sonicspctometer is in fact sonicspectrometer, a redirect. - Altenmann >t 08:14, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. Impact microscope was added to this AfD by Altenmann. -- 101.119.15.30 (talk) 00:53, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Impact microscope also. As with Impact spectrometer, there is no evidence of notability on searching, the references in the article are not relevant, and the article is totally incoherent. -- 101.119.15.30 (talk) 00:53, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete There is a type of diagnostic procedure in materials science called Acoustic emission analysis and some types of acoustic emission testing involve impact events to generate the acoustic emissions, e.g., this paper. It may be worth a mention in the Acoustic emission  article. But I haven't found any evidence of either "Impact spectrometer" or "Impact microscope" as terms being used in the literature. These seem to be neologisms. Per WP:NEO and an apparent lack of refs discussing these terms, the two articles seem to fail notability guidelines, per WP:GNG, the articles should be deleted..  --Mark viking (talk) 02:05, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment. Have nominated Impact microscope for deletion. -- Dan Griscom (talk) 23:43, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. Dtgriscom has fixed an improper listing of Impact microscope. This means that Impact microscope is no longer included within this AfD. -- 101.119.14.131 (talk) 04:13, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
