This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. 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 a historic record.
The result of the debate was DELETE. Golbez 19:59, May 16, 2005 (UTC)
This is Newton's method applied to the equation , as explained in more detail on N-th root algorithm. Nevertheless, a certain John Gabriel claims the algorithm as his (see the talk page). However, he is unable or unwilling to provide a reference. -- Jitse Niesen 00:03, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Mathematical Vanity? It's too funny... Nestea 01:13, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. We've dealt with this guy's stuff before. Eric119 04:13, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
- viz. Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Average tangent theorem. Delete original research. Gazpacho 22:09, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as original research where novel. Charles Matthews 08:49, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
- After you delete this entry, go ahead and delete the "Diminishing Angle Paradox" - it was conveyed to Jason Wells by me. Jason added it to Wiki. I do not want it to appear on a trashy site like this where a few prima donnas who know nothing, decide what it's value is worth. John Gabriel
- Sorry if this seems harsh, but it is nothing personal. If you believe the article is important, please explain it to us. Radiant_* 07:54, May 11, 2005 (UTC)
- Okay, as requested, Diminishing angle is going to bite the dust. Eric119 02:23, 14 May 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. John Gabriel has some interesting ideas, but none of his stuff that I've seen yet is encyclopedic, including this. I think I should also warn that, from experience, his email correspondence style can be rather aggressive. Andrewa 02:34, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
- This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
