Previously prodded, long how-to on a particular method of triangulation, for which there's already an article. Per WP:NOTHOWTO not an appropriate encyclopaedia topic. JohnBlackburne^words_deeds 02:18, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Redundant and so poorly written as to be unrescueable. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:08, 4 September 2012 (UTC).[reply]
Keep as a sub-article of triangulation. The content seems to be valid and could be merged to triangulation, but this should be discussed and decided at the talk page of article. My very best wishes (talk) 02:33, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to trilateration which is about exactly the same problem (determination of a location from distances to three known locations in 3d space) and, though far from perfect, much better written. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:06, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to trilateration per David Eppstein. -- 202.124.72.63 (talk) 01:30, 8 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
