The result was '''keep'''. Consensus is that this is a notable subject. Article can be expanded through normal editing. <small>([[Wikipedia:NACD|non-admin closure]])</small> [[User:Natg 19|Natg 19]] ([[User talk:Natg 19|talk]]) 19:21, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

There is both little evidence of significance, and only the lead sentence ''might'' be appropriate in a good article about the subject. No reliable sources are provided other than [1], which provides partial evidence of existence, not of notability. — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 09:20, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

I think this article shouldn't be removed: the algorithm itself is one of the backbones of Modelica compilers and in the Modeling and simulation industry considered a breakthrough for component-based modeling. — [[User:rhodin]], 7 December 2016 <!--Template:Undated--><small class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|undated]] comment added 19:52, 7 December 2016 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:That might be a plausible reason to keep the article, ''if'' there was anything in the article worth keeping. — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 06:20, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

::If the article is improved (introduction, better sources), you agree that it is worth keeping? I'll see what I can do through this weekend to improve the article. --[[User:Rhodin|Rhodin]] ([[User talk:Rhodin|talk]]) 20:10, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

:::Accepting David Eppstein's note below, yes. I still say that there is only one sentence worth keeping in the article as I last read it. Keeping [[WP:TNT]] in mind, .... — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 14:45, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

*'''Keep'''. Google scholar shows 584 citations to the original publication of this algorithm, and 182 publications using the exact phrase "Pantelides algorithm", making it clearly notable. The fact that our current article is a stub in need of expansion is not a valid reason for deletion. —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 06:30, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

*'''Keep'''. The algorithm is a core one in the simulation of dynamic systems. The article is a stub (created by me some years ago) and needs expansion rather than deletion. [[User:Jdpipe|Jdpipe]] ([[User talk:Jdpipe|talk]]) 23:24, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

*'''Comment'''. The article is pretty much useless, both to people unfamiliar with the term, and to people familiar with the term, but that may not be sufficient for [[WP:BLOWITUP]] to apply. The second paragraph would be useful if there were context. At a minimum, we need to link "index" in the lead, but I cannot find an appropriate point in the [[differential-algebraic equation]] article. — [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] [[User talk:Arthur Rubin|(talk)]] 16:18, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' - The article could be much improved, but isn't non-notable. [[User:Smmurphy|Smmurphy]]^{([[User talk:Smmurphy|Talk]])} 13:55, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
