JSH: Wikipedia article on difference equations?

It seems the Wikipedia doesn't have an article on difference equations. There is now just a re-direct to recurrence relations.

For those of you who don't know, a few years back the Wikipedia didn't have a prime counting function article either, until I wrote the first one.

I may start a difference equation article, but I'll let you people get
your chance first.

[A reply to someone who wrote that James should write it so that someone else could have the pleasure of deleting it like all his other worthless crap.]

You clearly don't know anything about the Wikipedia.

But you sci.math people—yes for those who don't know just more sci.math regulars who track me to other newsgroups replying so far—are all about rage. So sad.

I'm just being nice by not going ahead and writing the article anyway, though I do admit that while I have rough drafts in mind I'm not settled on any one thing as of yet.

But it is not as simple a matter of deleting off an article once I start one.

You'd have to justify doing so before the Wikipedia community.

And rage would not work with that group. You'd need to at least attempt to argue objectively.
