US transition to electric cars

Seems to be an essay rather than an encyclopedic article. I would recommend merging anything useful to electric car but I imagine most of it's already in there. — foxj 02:19, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There's no need to be U.S.-centric and this is a sort of artificial topic which doesn't need its own page. Electric car covers it all fine. Rcsprinter₁₂₃ (notify) 10:32, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Although the information is important the form of the article is not suitable for an encyclopedia. It starts out: "This page explores the consequences..." Encyclopedias are for facts, other media are for exploring alternatives. A published article (or even better more than one) making this kind of speculation should be linked to electric car and the conclusions given in a short section there.Borock (talk) 18:08, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
