376:– This article will leave any trained mathematician without prior knowledge, and more so any non-mathematician, in the dark as to what the topic is, aside from a broad classification. The intended meaning is evidently meant to be more specific than "a function over the integers", possibly with certain subjective properties. It is the very antithesis of "encyclopedic". —
357:- Non notable and even fringe: In the 5 first pages of Scholar Google, only one article in English about the mathematical notion, authored by Pickover, cited only by himself and one (?) Chinese people writing in Chinese (except for the abstract). Also a few articles in Chinese that I am unable to read.

This mathematical term seems to be used essentially by a single author (Pickover) and by definition is just a fancy name for a doubly infinite sequence. The list of examples provided consists of ordinary sequences except for the
413:- per above: I can't figure out what this article is trying to say. I've even published on some of the curves claimed to belong to this class. Perhaps there's some interesting relation or concept, but this is not it.

which clearly isn't "a function defined for integers" and therefore has no business in the list anyways. Moreover the article is dangerously close to a copyright violation of its sources.
394:- One trained mathematician left in the dark here! I've looked at all the given examples and can find no criteria that distinguishes these from what is essentially "white noise".
