Ring armature

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This is original research. No notability asserted. The invention's web site is Terry L Hewett Sr's "Ring Theory" (not linked to from the article), which does not supply any references or clear explanations. From what I understand of the vague description, it is an induction motor or AC motor design, but it is unclear what advantages it would offer. A quote from the inventor site: "The scientific society has reached a blockade in the road to advancement in technology. This is due to several things that i will highlight on this site in the future. But for now I would like to concentrate on the closest advancement mankind has to discovering the ring." Delete. - I see now that the article used to be a stub, only linked to from one article. I think we could do without the stub (integrate it into the single article linking to it).

 * Merge anything useful to electric motor or induction motor and redirect. Dbromage  [Talk]  23:54, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete An article in science and technology about new and innovative rotary electricval machines should be referenced to multiple books or journal articles. Come back when you have such references. Wikipedia is not a place for first publication of someone's inventions and innovations. (Would that Nikola Tesla and Zénobe Gramme were still around to review the article). Edison 03:15, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
