C miscellaneous operations

There is no such thing as "C miscellaneous operations" in the C standard Library - its maybe WP:OR. The cited material, which is WP:PRIMARY, does not mention miscellaneous operations and it look like the refs just cite some random functions. I have tried to seach for the term, but with no luck.

Delete. Lacks reliable independent secondary sources necessary to establish notability of this subject as required by WP:GNG. That's the formal reason. More to the point, this is just a WP:MADEUP list of random functions. While it might be appropriate to discuss these routines in the context of a notable subject like the C standard library, there's no evidence to suggest they merit a separate article. Wikipedia is not a manual. Msnicki (talk) 20:05, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Merge to C standard library. I don't see any potential to develop this into an encyclopedic article. —Ruud 22:35, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete. I'm sole contributor of this article. This article was created only because during a recent reorganization of articles about C standard library I felt a need for gradual transition without completely removing mentions of functions that before had full articles about them. So delete it now, I will merge some bits to relevant articles later. Thanks! 1exec1 (talk) 22:57, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
