Breadth-first search implementation

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)[reply]

Delete As a non-programmer, I find the article senseless. It doesn't even say what breadth-first search 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)[reply]
Keep/Merge Noms arguments seem to support merge rather than delete. I agree the article lacks context, that's because it belongs in the main article. Gigs (talk) 00:09, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
