Deletion of Aluminum internal combustion engine

Comment: to Internal combustion engine under . The 90% aluminum engine is not sufficiently distinct from other internal combustion engines made from different proportions of materials. I don't think this particular engine would be |due a mention in the Internal combustion engine article, although a list entry might be due in the History of the internal combustion engine article if more independent sources emerge. The #Reliability of (mostly) Russian news sources for an engineering breakthrough in Russia|RSN discussion identified weaknesses in the Russian news sources, in that some of the articles appear to be dependent on press releases and that Russian news media is considered less reliable for controversial topics (such as the "first engine" claim).Regarding the 1903 Wright engine, the cited https://airandspace.si.edu/exhibitions/wright-brothers/online/fly/1903/engine.cfm Smithsonian page states: {{tq|"The Wright engine, with its aluminum crankcase, marked the first time this breakthrough material was used in aircraft construction. Lightweight aluminum became essential in aircraft design development and remains a primary construction material for all types of aircraft."}} If aluminum became a mainstay in aircraft engines after it was used in the engine that powered the Wright Flyer|first flight, then aluminum engines should be covered in the Aircraft engine article instead of a separate article. —&nbsp
