Delete per reasons listed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ZwTerminateProcess and other nominations in this series: lack of individual notability. Also per what Wikipedia is not: specifically, it is not a Windows API manual nor a comprehensive list of system calls. Keφr 13:18, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also nominating (for the same reasons):

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Delete all I've commented on a few of these, and Wikipedia policy and guidelines seem clear. Wikipedia is not a directory or a reference manual. If Wikipedia covers every element of a large group of "cookie-cutter" items, whether they're video games, cellphones, road junctions, pop songs, electronic components, people who've held minor office, there must be something beyond the routine "X is a Y". You need some history, third-party evaluation, critical comment, etc (WP:SNOWFLAKE). These articles merely give syntax and usage information and sometimes examples (and WP:NOTHOWTO may additionally apply here.) There are specific notability rules for certain things like geographical features and biological species that are more generous, but there's no specific rule for API calls. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:38, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
