Seems to be a classic violation of WP:OR. The lede raises red flags with this respect all over the place. Google books search gives no related hits for "reaction mechanics (A lot of hits related to the mechanics of chemical reactions making it hard to filter the results.)

- Delete. It is structured like a research paper - it even has a Conclusions section! All of the citations are in the Introduction, where previous work is discussed. I was slow to notice this and wasted a lot of time editing it. RockMagnetist (talk) 16:30, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. It seemed like WP:OR when I first looked at it, and the author's post on the talk page there [[1]] only reinforced that impression. ASCIIn2Bme (talk) 19:35, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I will edit the article during the week of 7 to 11 November 2011. Reaction Mechanics is a mathematical model for calculating the motion of physical systems with delayed interactions. In the limit of no delay it reverts to Newtonian Classical Mechanics and in the limit of infinitesimal delay it reverts to the General Theory of Relativity. Neither Classical Mechanics nor the General Theory of Relativity analyze systems with delayed interactions. In the first example where Reactin Mechnaics was used it gives results in excellent agreement with observations.
