• User:Valoem/Time slip

I've changed the article considerably. It was originally written with a focus on the fringe phenomena. In actuality this is a notable device used in fiction with over a 100 years of relevance. Here is a good source [1]. I am requesting allow restoration with full history intact to show the evolution of the article. I have included from coverage of the fringe concept because it has been covered by secondary sources. This subject could have always been cleaned up.

• Move to main space - My impression when I saw this at AFD was that a time slip was likely a notable plot device (i.e., discussed in reliable sources), just based on the prominence of some of the works that use it (e.g., A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court). I didn't personally know of any such sources, so I didn't comment in the discussion, but it did seem to me that many of the participants were overly focused on the fringe aspect and probably not even looking for sources about this as a plot device. It looks like Valoem has added some sources that discuss this as a plot device. I think his version would pass the notability guidelines, so I would support moving it into main space.

• Move to main space as suggested; it's a reasonable article at this point. DGG ( talk ) 20:41, 15 September 2015 (UTC) reply
• Move to mainspace per Valoem's good work on the article.

  This source in the article strongly indicates the topic is notable:
