Square root of 6

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

As noted in WT:AFD, having multiple articles for individual square roots is "more than enough". SQRT(2) is special, if for no other reason that it's the first one. The others, not so much. I'll be nominating Square root of 3, Square root of 5, Square root of 6, and Square root of 7. The same argument applies to them all, but I'll make them distinct AfDs because bundled AfDs so often become train wrecks. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:26, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep – As in the previous discussion about deleting Square root of 5 from long ago (at Articles for deletion/Square root of 5), there is actually a lot of special stuff, and sources supporting independent notability of Square root of 6 here. Dicklyon (talk) 01:35, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per Dicklyon above and the discussions in the related AfDs for the square roots of 3 and 5. There is clearly a substantial literature concerning special properties of this number. I understand there can only be so many articles about square roots of integers, just like there can be only so many articles about integers themselves, but despite that fact, I don't see why this was nominated for deletion.

 * Weak Keep, not having taken the time to read the article in depth. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:59, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep This is important, but not as important as Square root of 3 and Square root of 5. Unlike those, I wouldn’t shed a tear if this was deleted. This is because it doesn’t have that much notability above square roots that don’t have articles. 68.198.188.106 (talk) 22:28, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
