Misplaced nomination — was placed at MfD by User:Jobava-ro, who says that "this describes technology that doesn't exist or is original research". I am neutral unless I comment below. Raymie (tc) 19:57, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. A quick look shows about 800 hits for the concept in Google Scholar, including two papers cited over 200 times. However the actual article seems to describe one specific application; the concept has also been responsible for most of the edits of User:Nulled in 2015. The concept may merit an article—I am not an expert in the subject–but in its current state the article does not seem appropriate. Raymie (tc) 20:17, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. It's possible, even probable, to write an article under this title. What we currently have here is not that article. Simply put, the current content is either implausible or incomprehensible; it claims to describe a system wherein electrolysis occurs by passing current through nonconductive pure water. One source cited is absolutely a reliable source. Despite not being cited correctly, it is a paper in the Journal of Power Sources. The other scholarly article, in the Serbian-published International Journal of Electrochemical Science is probably marginally acceptable also. However, neither of these articles is about low temperature electrolysis. Neither of them discusses the apparatus described in this article whatsoever. And, frankly, neither of them support the claims they are being used to cite here. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 20:40, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
