Constrained Optimization and lagrange Multipliers
Hello, and thank you for your efforts in creating Constrained Optimization and lagrange Multipliers. I see that this page is a tutorial. Such articles are very welcome at our sister project Wikibooks; see for instance the Mathematics bookshelf for text books in mathematics. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia and thus has no place for tutorials.

I marked the page to be transferred to Wikibooks. You can also do it yourself if you wish. Alternatively, you may want to work on the encyclopaedia article on the topic, which can be found at Lagrange multiplier.

I hope this clarifies everything a bit. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask me on User talk:Jitse Niesen. Best wishes, Jitse Niesen (talk) 11:49, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia does have an article titled Lagrange multipliers. If another is needed with the title constrained optimization and Lagrange multipliers, then Lagrange should have a capital L and optimization and multipliers'' should have lower-case initials. See Manual of Style. Michael Hardy (talk) 16:44, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Moved to Wikibooks
I’ve had the article you started moved to Calculus optimization methods, where it is now the core/start of a general book on Calculus optimization – thanks!

AfD Nomination: Constrained optimization and Lagrange multipliers
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem that Constrained optimization and Lagrange multipliers meets these criteria, an editor has started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Constrained optimization and Lagrange multipliers. Don't forget to add four tildes ( ~ ) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last five days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, a neutral third party will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article.
