That the repeated deletion of cited material be restored. The last revert was this [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformer_oil&diff=627630726&oldid=627570034 edit] and this should be reversed.

===Evidence===

The paragraph was already referenced, but has been deleted because of {{u|Wtshymanski}}'s apparent superior [[WP:OR|knowledge]] which apparently is regarded as superior to the added cite. Wtshymanski claims that the low sulphur oil is exactly the same as the regular variety, but clearly removal of the sulphur makes it different. There is considerable material via Google that shows that the sulphur corrodes the copper windings, hence the problem this oil apparently solves. Google only brings up 39,000 odd hits on the matter. This is important and notable enough to be included in the article.

For those concerned that a manufacturer's paper is not impeccable enough, then this ER requests that [http://eprints.soton.ac.uk/273124 this] and [https://www.cee.siemens.com/web/at/de/energy/trafo-linz/home/Documents/Corrosive-sulfur-in-transformer-oil-EN.pdf this] reference be either added or substituted as this comes from a much more impeccable source (University of Southampton and a ''transformer'' manufacturer respectively). I could add more references, but three should be more than adequate. [[Special:Contributions/85.255.235.66|85.255.235.66]] ([[User talk:85.255.235.66|talk]]) 13:06, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Edit request

That the repeated deletion of cited material be restored. The last revert was this edit and this should be reversed.

Evidence

The paragraph was already referenced, but has been deleted because of Wtshymanski's apparent superior knowledge which apparently is regarded as superior to the added cite. Wtshymanski claims that the low sulphur oil is exactly the same as the regular variety, but clearly removal of the sulphur makes it different. There is considerable material via Google that shows that the sulphur corrodes the copper windings, hence the problem this oil apparently solves. Google only brings up 39,000 odd hits on the matter. This is important and notable enough to be included in the article.

For those concerned that a manufacturer's paper is not impeccable enough, then this ER requests that this and this reference be either added or substituted as this comes from a much more impeccable source (University of Southampton and a transformer manufacturer respectively). I could add more references, but three should be more than adequate. 85.255.235.66 (talk) 13:06, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
