- The frederic algorithm (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
very recently created by a student, no sources, no suggestion of any applications outside of the students program or any recognition outside of the program. Beach drifter (talk) 02:56, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete: original research doesn't belong. Alexius08 (talk) 04:05, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

- Delete, no references or sources, nothing to even verify this algorithm even exists. No real claim to notability, and no claim of use outside one university. JIP | Talk 04:59, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete — article states that this algorithm has just been written by a student at Adelaide University, and is only used within the university, so it hasn't taken the world of data-sorting by storm yet and is thus not notable. (I suspect that this article also has just been written by a student at Adelaide University, and is mainly going to be read within the university by him and his mates.) pablohablo. 05:54, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. But best wishes to Fred in all his future endeavours. Mandsford (talk) 14:03, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Seconded. Incidentally when I saw the title of this article I thought it was going to be one of these. pablohablo. 14:17, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. WP:MADEUP comes to mind and this certainly seems like WP:OR, as well. Vicenarian (T · C) 15:14, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. I'm tempted to suggest WP:CSD#A1 speedy deletion as there is not enough context to distinguish this algorithm (whatever it is) from any other sorting algorithm. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:02, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
- Delete per above. Not that my support will change the result.--The Legendary Sky Attacker 02:13, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
