Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pseudolinear function
Notable subject well beyond reasonable doubt, cf book https://doi.org/10.1007%2FBF02612363 Pseudolinearity and efficiency, cited in google scholar by 59, articles http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6VCT-48NBMKS-3J6&_user=10&_coverDate=06%2F11%2F1993&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_searchStrId=1589278127&_rerunOrigin=google&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=3a62e4b868e854ed9434e5804d99e0c7&searchtype=a First and second order characterizations of pseudolinear functions (cited by 33), http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6VCT-48NBGJT-1X8&_user=10&_coverDate=02%2F15%2F1991&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_searchStrId=1589278126&_rerunOrigin=google&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=dd8f73f202afd8ab538b7d2acd7f2031&searchtype=a On pseudolinear functions (29), and many others by various authors. This subject has therefore been ''significantly covered'' by subject-matter experts (mathematicians, programmmers, economists, etc), hence satisfying the ''reliability'' requirements, who are not the same people as those who introduced the concept, hence satisfying the ''secondary'' and ''independence'' requirements of . This is therefore a notable mathemetical subject, so encyclopedic in nature, and which has applications and uses in economics, computing, and other domains, see for example its use in http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=222821 Analog CMOS implementation of a discrete time CNN with programmable cloning templates, http://www.jstor.org/pss/2653207 pseudolinear programming, etc, there are several variants and generalizations, see for example http://madis1.iss.ac.cn/madis.files/pub-papers/2007/ejor-07-sk-w-l-01.pdf Pseudolinear fuzzy mappings or http://ideas.repec.org/a/spr/decfin/v22y1999i1p31-39.html η-Pseudolinearity; so clearly a lenghty encyclopedic article can be written. Obviously, this is a (major) sub-subject of the very important concept of pseudoconvex function, but as shown-above it is fully stand-alone, if there is a concern that the article is in its present state is only a definition, then it can be redirected to Pseudoconvex function until such a time as a proper article can be written, but this should be left entirely at editorial discretion
