A majorly unsourced article (and a few of the sourced ines are unreliable) that fails WP:LISTN and is comprised of noble-synthesis of data. And, if someone do manage to find such trivial list(s) in high-school/undergrad science text-book (which often have them to provide an indicative idea of the vastness of the real range of a physical quantity), we are not one.We are an encyclopedia. ∯WBG^converse 06:36, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

• Comment This article is part of a set – see the following navigational template. It doesn't make sense to consider this in isolation when other members of the set have been extensively discussed and kept previously. For example, see RfC, AfD. Andrew D. (talk) 11:07, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Also fails WP:LISTN: "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources" – which this one hasn't. There's also what looks like WP:OR in the right-hand column. If anyone wants to know what (for example) fF means, they can type it into the search box and land on the DAB page FF, which includes a handy link to femtofarad. This list isn't even worth merging into farad.

The same goes for all the other nominated articles of this type. Narky Blert (talk) 13:14, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

• Keep per my comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Orders of magnitude (voltage). SpinningSpark 00:03, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

• Please provide multiple sources that covers the topic of order of magnitude of capacitance (not range of voltage) in a significant manner. I also note that one of your such boiler-plate arguments have been excellently refuted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Orders of magnitude (luminous flux).∯WBG^converse 13:26, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, wumbolo ^^^ 07:30, 23 October 2018 (UTC)

• Keep This article is useful because it compares different amounts of capacitance, and most of it is referenced. —Eli355 (talk • contribs) 00:06, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
