347:. While I disagree with ComplexRational claim to OR, the topic of the article is already covered at the list of number systems. Still, there isn't substantial content worth merging here that isn't covered there, as Base 11 was never really notable in its own right, and a redirect would not work either. So in the end, it isn't that there are no sources or that original research is present, but that the topic is extremely insignificant and does not possess any coverage besides routine definitions. So delete. 438:. Unless base 11 was ever used on a significant scale -- which I highly doubt, given the practical issues -- there's no more reason to have an article about it than about base 13, base 17, or any other impractical numeral system. It's also worth noting that we don't have (or, IMO, need) an article for base 7, even though it's both a lower number and at least indirectly used for days of the week. 415:(link is to their site; it's a synopsis of multiplication tables for all bases between 2 and 60 inclusive), so it's not quite OR. OTOH, for bases 12 and above they use the author's self-created transdecimal numerals, the DSA has switched to Pitman numerals (in which digit-10 is an inverted 2, not an X-like shape), and the DSA is hardly advocating use of undecimal! 383:]. Unreliable source from Quora. Apparently "X" was chosen as it was the Roman numeral for ten, which kind of makes sense, but the information is still not verifiable. However, it DID come from somewhere. Delete still stands. I can see why you would call it OR though, as a controversial claim without a citation. In all honesty, you were probably right. 476:
apply here. Does this base have multiple interesting properties distinguishing it, in its use as a base from other bases? No. Does it have any significant historical or cultural use? Not really, except as the punchline of a joke. The ISBN checksum has been claimed to be base-11, but it's not really
314:, there is no content suitable for merging. I cannot find many sources detailing the subject that may be used to expand this article (there really is only one aspect – the bit about the French Revolution – that has been covered, but is only two sentences that already exist in 206: 464: 159: 200: 283: 265:- this article is only two sentences long, and does not say much other than stating the obvious. It is badly written - "a addition" should be "an addition". 106: 132: 127: 91: 136: 519:- The article is short, uncited, badly written and the subject has no more reason to have its own page than any other impractical numeral system. — 166: 119: 221: 188: 86: 79: 17: 368:
The bit about using X (dek) as a digit for 10 is what struck me as OR, by the way. But I agree with this viewpoint as well.

Apart from the joke, AFAIK the only claims to notability for this base are two historical 473: 456: 388: 352: 270: 57: 477:— there's a calculation mod 11, but no use of 11 as an actual radix for base-11 notation. — 520: 319: 307: 153: 399: 384: 363: 348: 266: 53: 311: 322:.
