Welcome!
Hello, Abdekker, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Pacru, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted (if it hasn't already).
There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called
Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the
New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{

on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

A tag has been placed on Pacru requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Pacru, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's
criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a
speedy deletion tag from
Pacru, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{
hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's
talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

I have reverted the changes you made to indent style, since the original code was in fact valid Pascal code; your changes appeared to be trying to make it look like C code. Murray Langton ( talk) 14:03, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
[Abdekker] The code doesn't compile in the Delphi compiler and is not valid Pascal code. I'm a Delphi/Pascal programmer.
Hi Abdekker,
(* Example Allman code indentation style in Pascal *) procedure dosomething(x, y: Integer); begin while (x = y) do begin something(); somethingelse(); end; end;
For Standard Pascal see [1].
It may well be that the Delphi compiler doesn't entirely conform to standard Pascal, but the following points need to be considered:

[AD] Hi Murray. Thanks for pointing out the 4 tilda tag. Will use at the end of this response.

I propose to replace while (x = y) do by while x = y do since I think the latter reads better without the round brackets (those used to C/C++/Java may disagree). Murray Langton ( talk) 15:28, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi Murray. Sure, I've no strong objection to removing the brackets on "while x = y do", though I think you'll find a big majority of non-Pascal developers (and at least some Pascal developers such as myself) would prefer brackets here to retain familiarity with their language and more clearly identify the expression. Go ahead if you still would like to change the code. Good talking with you, best regards.
