An article for a specific javascript function is totally outside the scope of Wikipedia Jimduchek (talk) 15:20, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both: not encyclopedic topics. Mundane, directory-style listing/WP:NOTHOWTO. There's nothing interesting here from a historical or computer science point of view. If Wikipedia defined every API for every programming language, where would it end? --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:51, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to.... honestly, I'm not sure. Do we have an appropriate list of Javascript functions? Seems like they'd be search terms. But unless they've been discussed and noted on their own merits, I don't know that we can justify articles. Happy to be proved wrong, if someone has a good argument.
