The Crystal Ion, Arodynamic Air Turbine Engine

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Well, first off, the article is full of speculation and original research and is very poorly written and even the title is misspelled.. But beyond that, this "Crystal Ion" thing, from my Web research, is the power-generation equivalent of a perpetual motion device invented by someone no one has heard of who is trying to promote it without much success. As far as I can tell the extent of sourcing available here is that this made it into a local newspaper article once because of the wild claims of its inventor, but it gets no hits on Google News. See WP:SCIENCE: we cannot possibly cover this topic accurately because no reputable work has been done about it that I can find, either in support of it or in opposition to it. And it's not, from the Google News search, notable crackpottery, either. (Oh, and it was a contested prod.) Delete. Mango juice talk 16:02, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete - Patent nonsense, and besides, Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Articles cannot be created to predict how well an engine will work. -- tennis man    sign here!  16:48, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
