• Delete This should not be transwikid. The tone of the article is completely unencyclopedic, even going so far as to use the first person. There is nothing salvageable in the article. This topic is already covered on the rocket page, which is my main reason for deletion. Additionally, this article does not cite its sources. As it appears now, it is original research, as shown by the use of "I" in the article. --Cyrus Andiron 21:45, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment As in ox"I"d"I"zer? Please, while this article should not exist in Wikipedia, this is suitably well written for Wikijunior. George Leung 00:19, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
    • The "I" is in "There are other kinds of rocket engines that I won’t go into detail." in its last section. Anthony Appleyard 06:35, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Comment That was the "I" that I was referring to. Articles should not be written from a first person perspective. This article is written more like a high school essay than an encyclopedia article. --Cyrus Andiron 12:51, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:NOT. Transwiki probably not worth the time. Danski14^(talk) 02:32, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - This topic is already covered and much better at rocket. I doubt that this would be a commonly used redirect, and don't see that this well written enough to bother transwikiing. --EMS | Talk 19:43, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect or Merge any useful information (if any) not already included in Rocket. --T-dot (Talk | contribs) 17:59, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
