Draft:List of Excel functions


Qualifies for deletion per WP:NOTHOWTO. North America1000 18:06, 4 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Two questions before deletion, please


 * I don't know if I'm doing this the right way. An entry on my talk page says I can add a comment here, so that's what this is. I have two questions.


 * 1. At the help desk for Articles for Creation, I asked why this article was not okay when it is very similar to the article, List of Unix commands. I was told the problem was the external links in it. So I removed those links and resubmitted the article. I did not see anything more about the article until this nomination for deletion. So my question is again, with the external links removed, why is this article not okay and the list of Unix commands is?


 * I'm not asking this question to challenge authority, but to understand the distinction.


 * 2. If I remember correctly, I developed this article as a subpage of my user page and then moved it somewhere to become the proposed new article. If it is to be deleted, can I instead move it back to being a subpage of my user page so I can continue to refer to it there myself?

 * You are welcome and encouraged to participate here. The discussion runs for a week. I'm one of the most active AfC reviewers so I'll take a look and comment on the Draft itself. Legacypac (talk) 00:35, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Keep. Acceptable topic with encyclopedic info. — python coder (talk &#124; contribs) 11:39, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep responding to the request above I've done an AFC review of the relevant policies and found this is a reasonable and acceptable page. It lists functions of a very popular program, includes info on the evolution of the list of functions, and is not really a guide on how to use the functions.  If we can have lists of game scores and movie roles and roads we can find a place for this super useful reference article. It is a reasonable spinout from the Excel page for that manner, something that could go there except for space considerations.  Legacypac (talk) 00:54, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
