Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Breadth-first search implementation
- Breadth-first search implementation (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
As has been discussed ad nauseam at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Computer science#Source code, Wikipedia is not a code repository: it is appropriate to describe an algorithm within its own article both in English prose and as either (preferably) pseudocode or a single code implementation. Multiple redundant implementations belong somewhere else more suited to hosting code. We've recently gone through several iterations of ripping all this code out of the breadth-first search article, leaving something shorter that a human can read; this attempt to add it back in by a back-door channel is not constructive. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:55, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete As a non-programmer, I find the article senseless. It doesn't even say what breadth-first is. The issues that led to this need to be resolved, this isn't the answer. How one would establish notability and verifiability for code like this I can't begin to imagine. Drawn Some (talk) 23:49, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
