[edit] Gravitational physics

There is already plenty of articles (main one being Gravitation) that describe this topic. This one is just a listcruft of references. A merge is not even useful, as the main article is much more advanced. Delete Tony 21:13, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete and redirect per nom Ace of Sevens 21:20, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. The content of this article is not to be found in Gravitation (have a look yourselves). Further more it explains a slightly different theory of Gravitation to the generally used General Relativity, so merging isn't appropriate (though a renaming to affine theories of gravitation or similar may be appropriate). Could do with clean up and expanding though. CaptainJ ^{(t | c | e)} 21:24, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
  • So this page could be called "Historic tests of the equivalence principle", for example? — RJH (talk) 22:49, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Maybe, I'm not sure now. If it's a copyvio, then maybe it should be shortened and merged? CaptainJ ^{(t | c | e)} 11:07, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, copyvio http://www.mazepath.com/uncleal/eotvos.htm... albeit with chunks chopped out. It's sat in its current form since Jan 2004 with no improvements or work (someone in 2004/10 tried to add some wikilinks). I'm not qualified to judge the contents, but my BS detector is ringing clearly. - Motor (talk) 23:21, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as copyvio. If it wasn't I'd suggest a merge of the list into Gravitation as it's somewhat interesting . Inner Earth 09:31, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
• DELETE as copyvio, REDIRECT to gravitation. 132.205.45.148 19:42, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
