The article List of discontinued x86 instructions has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:NOTMANUAL, we are not a collection of code changes

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Deletion discussion about List of discontinued x86 instructions

[edit]

Hello, Punpcklbw, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Dr vulpes, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, List of discontinued x86 instructions, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of discontinued x86 instructions.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Dr vulpes}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Hey @Punpcklbw sorry for not getting to you sooner. I just wanted to let you know that in the AfD for this article the proposal is to move it to Wikibooks as part of a large book on the x86 instruction set. Dr vulpes (💬📝) 02:57, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!
