I believe we have no speedy criteria for this (yet). This seems like an essay paper. None of this is encyclopedic; it describes heat and temperature and conduction and the like... no need for definitions here. The page is being nominated primarily because there is no context to describe the topic; it all appears to be original research. — Timneu22 · talk 13:56, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as vandalism and probable copyvio - see the editor's other activities and in particular this diff

- Not if it's WP:OR. Could be speedied per A10 though - I've tried this with the identical article Gas-fired infrared heaters andy (talk) 15:29, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy delete. {{db-a10}} applies - duplicates existing articles. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:33, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Created by a single-purpose account which has repeatedly vandalized infrared heater. This article has almost nothing to say about its putative topic; if it did have anyt substantial content, it would be a duplicate of material already in context at infrared heater. --Wtshymanski (talk) 19:41, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: Added speedy a10 tag. Originally I added speedy to the other article (with a10 as the reason) because it looked like this account created both. Weird. Anyway, that one looks good now so clearly this needs to be deleted. — Timneu22 · talk 19:44, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
