Deletion rationale[]

No Trek relation whatsoever, nor can I find any citable references to apply to this. --Alan del Beccio 00:24, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Delete. While Trek occasionally mentioned algorithms, it was never in this context. Also, this article seems more like a dictionary entry, as no citation is given(as Alan said) 31dot 00:52, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Delete. It would be a fine wikipedia entry, and I found it (dry, but) interesting, although it seems to have no relation to Star Trek. Hossrex 02:06, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Delete. This seems also to my like a personal essay. Some of us have our own "personal essays" here, but we keep them on our user pages, not as independent articles. --OuroborosCobra ^talk 02:22, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Delete. – Tom 12:54, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
~~Keep~~. We less techie trekkies can use a hand getting savvy sometimes. It helps us separate a lot of on-screen technobabble from true math/science. John 23:16, 28 November 2007
- Wikipedia's purpose is to educate on a plethora of esoteric ideas. Memory Alpha's purpose is to record canonical information about Star Trek. -- Hossrex 22:17, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- Besides, John the Anon, anonymous users cannot vote unless they are the author of the page in question. Your vote has been struck. --From Andoria with Love 18:02, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
And having stated the above, I vote delete, as well. --From Andoria with Love 18:03, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
