*'''Redirect''' to [[selenium]]. I'm not really seeing much worthwhile for a merge since it's mostly just being used to self-cite, so just redirecting should be fine. [[User:Kingofaces43|Kingofaces43]] ([[User talk:Kingofaces43|talk]]) 16:24, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
::I'll also clarify due to some comments below for a merge that I did look over the article having a chemistry background, and I didn't find anything really relevant to merge. It was all pretty much just [[WP:COATRACK]] content not really talking about optical properties (even though the text sounds technical), but instead saying certain experiments have used selenium tangentially.

*'''Merge''' into [[Selenium]] by a knowledgeable and impartial editor, as some of the citations in [[Optical properties of selenium]] may be worth keeping. &nbsp;&nbsp;<b>~</b>&nbsp;<font style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:16px;">[[User:Tom.Reding|Tom.Reding]] ([[User talk:Tom.Reding|talk]] ⋅[[WP:DGAF|dgaf]])</font>&nbsp; 16:41, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
* '''Merge''' as above. The evident COI in 6 of the citations indicates the likelihood of bias and indeed overtechnicality. The properties of a thing are, well, core to its being and equally core to the main article, which is [[selenium]]. We won't need to talk much about the properties, just to name and cite them, and the main article is the place for that. By the way, nom, a merger doesn't require to be brought to AfD.
