Speedy deletion nomination of User:Boute

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. A tag has been placed on User:Boute requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, and/or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because it is the draft of a concept to be placed on the talk page for the Wikipedia article Functions (mathematics). This purpose is clearly stated under the heading Rationale and is fully in the interest of Wikipedia goals. Remark: putting up this page for deletion is an act of intellectual vandalism, potentially destroying a full week's work. Will the person responsible for this action please come in the open? --Boute (talk) 18:08, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Function

Once again, thank you for your kindness.

Regarding the article, for formality's sake, I made a change HERE (which did not modify the old definition but placed it in a better context) and a summary in the discussion. I expected it to be immediately reverted - however, if something were to change in the future, it could perhaps be an argument that a certain group of people clung to the wrong/old version and did not allow for corrections/improvements to be made to the article - using non-substantive argumentation ("they disagree and that's it" and silence). You rightly observed that they are behaving like children.

I even heard a saying once: "whoever behaves like a child at the age of 20, will remain a fool for the rest of their life".

Thanks for keeping me updated. I visit these pages only once a year around February, checking progress.

A recently accepted article on functions is [1], where many definitional design choices and their consequences are discussed. It became a bit inflated due to an excess of "suggestions". Boute (talk) 14:37, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
