Maybe there's a misunderstanding between what harmonic analysis are used
for and what they are based on ?

Harmonic analysis are a form of waveform function for signal analysis.
Mostly used for extracting signal for mountain of noise (one
application) but there's many and the math basis behind this is far from
the common usage.

We often forget that Wikipedia is a "general encyclopedia" not a
specific encyclopedia. For example can't compare the page in Wikipedia
for Harmonic Analysis and the page in a Wikibooks with a chapter on
harmonic analysis and it's introduction page.

I really don't understand why you feel that the reference to Fourrier
transformation ain't appropriate.
