The article is too bad for words and is in any case covered far better already in Supercritical carbon dioxide, which is the same thing.--Gueux de mer (talk) 10:16, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well the liquid differs from supercritical, even if this article confuses them in the use section. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:49, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I agree the article is too bad for words, but I think it should be rewritten rather than deleted. I get the impression it has been translated from another language, either by a machine or by someone who's not a native English speaker. It needs to be rewritten from scratch by an English speaker who knows the subject well. --Roly (talk) 21:18, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think the article is worth preserving but large parts of it look copy-pasted. I removed things that looked pasted from white papers and not generally interesting. Did minor prose cleanup and pulled things that didn't have citations. There are two citation references to wikipedia, which I don't generally see; would like advice from a more experienced moderator on what to do there. This article still needs major cleanup.

Checking the edit history, this page originated from a non-native speaker making their first contribution to wikipedia. I believe the aggressive inclusion of research paper summary was done in an excess of enthusiasm and not any attempt to spam their relevance. You may privately consider the article "too bad for words", and it may objectively meet standards for deletion, but stating it that way is discouraging and won't do anything to educate that contributor or casual moderators/contributors like me. It would be more constructive to instead name the one or more chief flaws that need repair, leaving room for newbie contributors to understand their work is welcomed but must meet quality standards.
