Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Table-oriented programming
Filtering out any contributions (either to the article, or to the references) that were penned by Topmind and not vetted by peer review--there may be enough left to merge into an existing relational article (which one, I don't know--Object-Relational impedance mismatch might be a good bet).  The use of relational tables and such as a dispatching mechanism predates Topmind; and there do appear to be at least one or two cites to reliable sources on the matter.  I won't comment here on the merits of Top's ideas (I've commented quite a bit elsewhere), but the merits don't matter for this discussion.  Topmind's theories don't appear to be embraced by anybody but Topmind and are for that reason not encyclopedic, Wikipedia is |not for "pet theories" and stuff made up in school one day (or even over the course of several years
