Contested PROD. This is... really just a personal essay spanning multiple topics. Not sure there's a particularly plausible redirect in there anywhere. GMG ^talk 19:00, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. It's mostly a paraphrase (occasionally close) of the references cited, and adds nothing to History of physics. The Mighty Glen (talk) 19:18, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete As above. Wikipedia is not a publisher of personal essays. Anything substantial that this article could cover would likely be better suited to history of physics. Hrodvarsson (talk) 19:35, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete As above. Also, the title is misleading, as suggesting wrongly that it is about the history of Theory of equations. D.Lazard (talk) 19:51, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
DElete -- This is a random collection of some important physics equations, not an encyclopaedic article. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:25, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Agree that this is an essay which Wikipedia is not a collection of. -- Dane ^talk 03:56, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - As all above.--MaoGo (talk) 09:10, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Per NOT and SYNTH. Smmurphy^(Talk) 17:32, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Not a clearly defined article topic appropriate for wikipedia (and extremely low quality in any case). Mathchecker (talk) 18:54, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. ESSAY concerns. fork of List of equations and History of mathematics.Icewhiz (talk) 11:12, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
