:: Thanks for taking the time to explain. It was clearly a good user group experience. However, as far as the article is concerned, we're just of the opinion that an element's properties belong with the element's article. And since we think some of the cited material may be useful over at the main article, we're arguing for a merge not a delete.

:::[[User:Chiswick Chap|Chiswick Chap]]. Thanks for your comment. '''Physical properties of selenium''' is a very important field in the smartphone industry. I do agree that the physical properties section in the selenium article should be expanded, but merging is not the way to do it. It is like requesting the merge of [[Car]] article into the uses section of the [[Steel]] artile. Cars might be a good item to be mentioned in the steel article :P . No one will request the merge of [[Nokia 5]] into the [[Nokia]] article, simply cause they are two different connected things. Yes, they might look good together for some people, but that is not a solid merge excuse. --[[User:Tarawneh|Tarawneh]] ([[User talk:Tarawneh|talk]]) 20:03, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' After a glance at Google Scholar, I am thoroughly unimpressed by the argument made above that {{tq|Mousa Jafar [is] a leading scientist in [that] field}} and that the reference-bombing would be the same in an impartially-written article. In the refs, [http://www.ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/apr/article/view/40452 this] is from 2014 and has 4 cites (including two self-cites) so far, [https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10854-015-4156-z that] is almost two years old and has 3 cites (2 of which self-cites). [http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10043-017-0311-5 This] has 2 cites including one self-cite, but it is fairly recent. Maybe semiconductor research is a low-cite field, but I fear this is the academic equivalent of a [[WP:WALLED|walled garden]].
:In light of the above, I get a distinct [[WP:LINKSPAM]] feeling - but this should not prevent us to improve existing articles. There might be material from the sources that can be brought to the [[selenium]] article, but it is going to need a topic expert - I am moderately familiar with semiconductors, yet I could not make heads or tails of [https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10854-015-4156-z this ref].
