  • Well, it's certainly an established term - plenty of articles on Scholar use it [1], and there's extended definitions in textbooks [2]. Whether that's enough for an article, I don't know. If not, merge to electrical conductance? At least some sort of definition (maybe in that article) would be good. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 09:52, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I've address both long-standing flags for no sources and no links (orphan). I've also managed to find and insert quite a range of independent WP:RS to show this term is in use across a number of scientific research fields. I'd never heard of it before, but that's no reason for deletion. Nor would WP:NOTDICT apply any more, as this article has now been expanded sufficiently to being more than a mere definition. Note to nom: do remember to sign your AfDs in future, please. Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 02:03, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I do normally sign my comments, must have just slipped my mind. Thank you for expanding on it I couldn't find any good secondary sources when I tried. EvilxFish (talk) 13:43, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
