BESM (disambiguation)[edit]

2-item DAb page. Chances of getting more are extremely slim. - üser:Altenmann >t 18:36, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Altenmann, dab pages are for WP:AfD, see WP:DSDAB. As for deleting 2-item dab pages, there is an ongoing discussion about the policy. Uanfala (talk) 08:43, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This was probably posted in the wrong venue to begin with, and so should have been closed on procedural grounds and moved to AFD. However, I've rendered the WP:TWODABS cause for deletion moot, as I've added N¹, N¹²-bis(ethyl)spermine, which was the subject of some anti-cancer research, largely in the late 1980s. Correspondingly, I've added a mention of the compound to the spermine article, sourced to here in Cancer Research and here from the Journal of Biological Chemistry. I've also created the redirect to spermine from the specific capitalization (BESm), and hatnoted appropriately. Incidentally, "BESM" is also used in rock mechanics to refer to the "best estimate stress model", an ISRM-recommended estimate of rock stress (see here), but our coverage of that entire topic space is so terrible that I literally can't find any article in which to add a discussion of rock stress models; even rock stress is a redlink.
