Wood diesel: Chidgk1 ( talk ) 13:53, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the list of Georgia (U.S. state)-related deletion discussions .  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 14:20, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete Was newly developed in the lab and has not become an actual product since.  Reywas92 Talk 14:23, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Your ability to purchase the article subject has nothing to do with it's notability.  small jars t c 16:42, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I think it would be more notable if it was actually produced in bulk Chidgk1 ( talk ) 14:10, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It would be more notable if RSes had more things to say about it.  I guess production could be one of those things.  I do agree there's content issue with the weight given to enviromental/economic benefits in this and the section in pyrolysis oil if they haven't come to fruition.  It should focus on the science if the topic is experimental.  small jars t c 14:27, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : What links here is part of WP:BEFORE .  If you had checked, you should have found two distinct reliable sources on wood diesel at pyrolysis oil , enough to pass WP:GNG .  small jars t c 16:40, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] This is not independent reporting, it's a press release by the University of Georgia touting their own researchers' publication.  This is essentially the same thing repackaged, using the same quote <"It's going to take a while before this fuel is widely available," Adams said.  "We've just started on developing a new technology that has a lot of promise."> Without any further development of additional research publications and independent discussion, I do not see notability, and Wikipedia is not the place for stand-alone articles for any new technology.  I maintain my delete vote and would also suggest removing it from Pyrolysis oil unless this moved beyond this lab.  Reywas92 Talk 21:18, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Fair points and I should have been less arrogant.  It still seems to meet GNG from sources such as [2] and [3] , though these seem to be less practical forms of diesel-compatible biofuels based on wood than the one the article is currently focussed on.  small jars t c 22:01, 29 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment There's this [4] , I'm not sure if it's the same product though.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 02:14, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Could redirect to biomass, which I think is a similar product, but I'm not an expert in biofuels.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 02:18, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Or I could merge with Biodiesel if people don’t wish to delete it Chidgk1 ( talk ) 05:48, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The thing about that merge is that "wood (bio)diesel" seems to refer to various biofuels that can be combined with or used as a replacement for (bio)diesels, rather than to biodiesel in the proper sense of the word.  small jars t c 10:21, 30 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Thanks, Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 20:27, 7 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete There are no reliable sources listed 128.6.36.94 ( talk ) 22:02, 7 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to biofuel or biodiesel .  This is clearly a thing that exists and has been reported on in reliable sources ( [5] , [6] ).

Thanks, L iz Read!  Talk!  23:32, 14 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep The subject seems to be important, there is one source only, but the article can be improved.  Adler3 ( talk ) 00:48, 15 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete See WP:ITSNOTABLE and WP:ASSERTN .  You can't make vague statements about notability without backing them up.  If you can find sources that do, I am willing to change my vote.  JML1148 ( Talk | Contribs ) 07:48, 15 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] https://biomassmagazine.com/articles/19846/alleo-energy-produces-renewable-diesel-from-wood-waste https://www.dw.com/en/powering-cars-with-diesel-made-from-wood/a-16148231 These sources seems to talk about Wood diesel.  There might be overlaps with another article Adler3 ( talk ) 15:04, 20 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Adler3 is now blocked, but both the sources they gave are good finds which are not derivative of the press release that ! voters brought up earlier in the discussion.  We still have the problem that wood (bio)diesel is a loosely defined concept, and this article could benefit from expert attention.  small jars t c 16:28, 22 May 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
