The result was Userfy. Out-of-process closure, as there are some delete !votes and I commented below, but I think this is a better solution under the circumstances. This article has been identified here as a student contribution from a class not integrated into the education program; per that thread, education program is engaging now; makes sense not to delete these contributions piecemeal before the education program has reached a resolution.

The opening paragraph of this article "...As it appears in Figure 1..." make is clear this is a copy and paste from somewhere. (I cannot find a source so it may be a school project or somesuch.) Whatever the source, the article is an essay and only repeats what is already in Wikipedia at the articles of the four individual subjects. RichardOSmith (talk) 19:23, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The content duplicates existing articles. It is full of factual errors as well. -- Ed (Edgar181) 13:48, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:ESSAY, copied and paste from somewhere, which duplicates existing articles. -- 120.17.0.71 (talk) 00:39, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy as tagged on the page - the concept certainly is notable, but this needs so much work as to be useless in its current state. Bearian (talk) 18:15, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy per argument by Bearian. Do not delete since a lot of work has gone into it, and it can potentially be improved on. For the record, I wouldn't automatically advocate for a class assignment to be put into user space. Once a page is sufficiently mature, it belongs as an article. --IO Device (talk) 03:50, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy, pretty sure this is homework (see here). Opabinia regalis (talk) 03:57, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
