Only source is an email list, user generated content. AFAIK there exist no other sources or published work on this topic, as the author of the topic at hand (Harvey Friedman) primarily releases results through this email list. C7XWiki (talk) 09:12, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No sources have been provided to indicate that anyone other than these games' creator has published any content about them. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:01, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I'm not finding any indications that the mathematics literature has picked up these concepts. We can't base an article entirely on mailing-list posts. (The links given in the article aren't even viewable outside of NYU, and searching found nothing usable.) XOR'easter (talk) 00:46, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Less notable even than the articles we sometimes see based on only a single recently-published primary source. This has no published sources at all. Friedman is a recognized expert so the sources can be considered under WP:SPS but I don't think they contribute to notability. Quickly growing functions are one of the cruftier corners of Wikipedia's mathematics coverage and this article exemplifies that. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:12, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
