Noncommutative polynomial

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article refers only to a single theorem about noncommutative polynomials. Whether or not that theorem deserves an article, the topic of noncommutative polynomials shouldn't start with that theorem. It's possible a move, followed by overwriting the redirect with a sensible article, might be better. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 00:02, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As an alternative, move the current Non-commutative polynomial ring article (actually, at free algebra) to this name (Noncommutative polynomial). This involves deleting the article presently here, so it still requires a delete result. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 05:37, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The article does not seem to be about the subject but a narrow aspect of it. There might be material for an article with this name, but it's hard to see where it find it from what's here. Given this, a move might be in order but the references given do not establish notability for what is covered.--RDBury (talk) 04:56, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. AfD is not a clean-up process. If you want to suggest a merge into Non-commutative polynomial ring, you should suggest that. There is literally nothing - no comment at all - on the discussion page of the article. This nomination is not apparently about the topic of the article, but about the handling of this draft, so is quite out of scope for the process. Please follow the good steps mentioned at WP:BEFORE.
