* Hi, I created this article based on the very interesting 1974 Carus Monograph by Davis, as cited. However, before adding more material about the definition and significance of the function, I went searching for context and other sources, and frankly didn't find much, so it seems that other mathematicians didn't flock on board the concept, at least not under that name. Thus I began to have my own doubts about notability, but I didn't propose the article for deletion myself, in hope that some mathematical editor with a more comprehensive knowledge of the field would come along and do something constructive with it. However since the forces of destruction seem to have arrived first, I won't oppose them. [[User:Eleuther|Eleuther]] ([[User talk:Eleuther|talk]]) 10:45, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

*'''Comment'''. A quick [[WP:BEFORE]] search shows that this is pretty clearly a notable concept{{snd}}there are multiple books written about the topic, papers referencing them, etc. However, with one sentence merely saying whom it was named for and a ref for that, it's hard to see what use it has as-is. Probably a case of [[WP:HEY]]. &ndash;[[User:Deacon Vorbis|Deacon Vorbis]]&nbsp;([[User Talk:Deacon Vorbis|carbon]]&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Deacon Vorbis|videos]]) 12:47, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' I added the definition given in Shapiro's book, so it's a reasonable stub now, and there appear to be plenty of opportunities for expansion. [[User:XOR&#39;easter|XOR&#39;easter]] ([[User talk:XOR&#39;easter|talk]]) 16:54, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

*'''Keep'''. Two reliably published book sources entirely devoted to this topic is more than adequate. —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 18:38, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

*'''Keep''', thanks to {{u|XOR'easter}} for doing the legwork and per my earlier comments. &ndash;[[User:Deacon Vorbis|Deacon Vorbis]]&nbsp;([[User Talk:Deacon Vorbis|carbon]]&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Deacon Vorbis|videos]]) 18:44, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
