Copyediting 2009-3-14

I did some copyediting today, after someone wisely pointed out that the article was very difficult to read.

At present, I am pretty happy with the neutrality of the lede section. The next few sections are just OK, and the section "Schmidhuber's generalized Turing machines" is pretty rough. — Carl (CBM · talk) 00:13, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This page is still here?

Amazing.

The page is misleading on (at least) two points. The first is the content, but it is not sufficient to be "neutral" with respect to that. Because the second is the term itself. There's room on Wikipedia for notable dissent with the Church-Turing thesis, but "Super-recursive algorithm" is still an idiosyncratic term, and most of the dissenters cited by Burgin do not use it.

I still advocate very heavily trimming this page and stuffing whatever's left into hypercomputation or other target. --Unzerlegbarkeit (talk) 05:33, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
