This article discusses about a future process for chips. However, here is my issue with the article. One, it sounds like Wikipedia is being used as a platform for a research paper, which is a no-no. Second, some of the text I have found were copied from here, but not enough to make it a pure copyright violation. Third, all images this guy is adding are under a Non-modification license. I feel uneasy with this article, if we know that many of the text is released under a non-modification license (ditto with the images). Yall figure this out, since I have no clue what to do. Anyways, delete. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 01:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Tentative delete per lack of notability and apparent grey (at best) copyright status...third-party reporting/notablity would push me to keep/rewrite, concur with nom, feels like crystal-ball or school project report. WP is not your research group's webpage. DMacks 01:55, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Read the whole article. It's a PhD research project that's put together a proof of concept. (Not quite a "future process for chips" so much as an alternative hardware architecture of sorts.) Interesting idea, but come back when it's out of the research stage and starts moving towards commercial usage. Zetawoof_(ζ) 10:56, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Transwiki - Acceptable parts could be transwikied to Wikiversity.--Remi 23:41, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • That doesn't sound like a bad option, but the images would still need to go, due to their CC-ND license. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 00:28, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - It's a notable computer architecture research project going on right now, is producing conference and journal papers about it (not OR). It's covered really well for such a project, which is odd, but that's not bad... Georgewilliamherbert 23:02, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep- This was a completed PhD project that works. The copyright issues can be resolved because it is open to the public. The system never emailed me the deletion to my registered email address. Su johnd 22:10, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
