Radioactive Instability in the Nucleus – Formula

Template:La – (View log⧼dot-separator⧽ Stats)

(Template:Find sources AFD)

WP:NOTTEXTBOOK and entirely redundant. The basics of exponential decay (already thoroughly covered in that article) given a new original name and presented in some sort of how to-ish form (with some rather problematic terminology, I might add). Would have tagged it for CSD A10 if it hadn't been sitting orphaned for 6 years already. Kolbasz (talk) 17:12, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

• Strong Delete: Nothing notable; material already exist on the page Exponential decay#Half life in the form:

$N(t)=N_0{2}^{-t/t_{1/2}}.$

i.e. equivalent elsewhere so not worth a merge.Klbrain (talk) 23:34, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

• Strong delete, srndlt, sni, si, s ... Utterly basic equation covered elsewhere. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:16, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:NOT. If the article has nothing encyclopaedic to add about the topic, then content such as this should be deleted. FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 20:23, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
• Delete As is it's a how-to article. No sources and no discussion beyond the bare formula, which to me indicates that this is not an encyclopedia article. It's already covered elsewhere and much better on Exponential decay. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:57, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
