The result was no consensus. The closest thing to a consensus that has arisen in this discussion is to merge the article somewhere, perhaps to Paris' law - this can be deliberated on outside AfD. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 21:05, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:OR concerns; I've been unable to find other coverage, and all the references are to papers by Baptista and Adib. The article could use a rename even if kept - there are many alpha-beta models. power~enwiki (π, ν) 01:46, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep/merge This is similar to Titanium adhesive bonding – a narrow technical account of some aspect of titanium material science. This seems to be a student assignment and so is quite unlikely to be OR. What it needs is more context and wikification. To understand the apha/beta aspect, see titanium alloy and sources such as this. To understand our policies on such pages, see WP:ATD; WP:BITE; WP:IMPERFECT; WP:NOTPAPER; WP:PRESERVE. Andrew D.

• Delete All the papers are written by a small group of people, with two names that are common to each, apart from one entry. That is the very definition of WP:OR. It is not verifiable. Perhaps in 5 years when it is well known, but not at the moment. I can't find anything on it either. There way to verify it. scope_creep^Talk 18:53, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Needs to prove notability with reliable, third-party sources. --Darth Mike^(talk) 18:15, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Selective merge to Paris' law, where it can be briefly treated as a generalization. XOR'easter (talk) 01:07, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
