Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Adams constant

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adams constant was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was DELETE

I love The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy as much as anyone else, but this is bordering on patent nonsense. This "constant" is meaningless and no one has ever used it: 5 unrelated Google hits. Best case, this is simply a non-notable neologism. Plutor 15:21, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Note: The entry's creator Wereon has modified another user's page with a link to his own, and vice versa. Plutor 15:32, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete, although a point could be made that it is mostly harmless. -Vina 17:19, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. I predict 42 delete votes :O --Improv 18:12, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Can this be merged into some page related to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? If not, just delete. Andris 18:21, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, unheard of neologism. Forty-two is adequately covered at The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything. --Goobergunch 19:48, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • "Although it has been discovered, its use has not yet been found." Oh, okay. Delete but feel free to come back with an actual article once the computer built to divine the use of the constant comes back with an answer. Spatch 20:49, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Neologism. --Yath 23:25, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, not known under that name; already covered in 42 (number). But do not redirect because "Adams' constant" is not in actual use. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 01:12, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, quick, before someone creates pages for "Adamsogon" and "Adamsohedron" ;-)... Pnot 02:13, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Term is not in use, valid info already found in The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything. — Gwalla | Talk 20:52, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Neologism. — Kieff | Talk 07:02, Oct 1, 2004 (UTC)
  • BJAODN candidate. Delete. -- Mike Rosoft 21:58, 4 Oct 2004 (UTC)
