Line 11:
[[User:Jon Awbrey]] (now permanently blocked) moved this article from [[Davis-Putnam algorithm]] to [[Davis-Putnam algorithm]] (if that's too subtle to see, he replaced the simple hyphen with a slightly longer en dash. While some manuals of style recommend this, I don't think it is appropriate here - Wikipedia rule is to use the most well-known name, and most people do not even know about different dashes, let alone how to type them on a normal keyboard (the last includes me...). So I suggest to move it back. Any coments? --[[User:Stephan Schulz|Stephan Schulz]] 06:48, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
:The long dash convention was a math project one. In my opinion, it was a bad choice; anyway, this article is about computer science, so I do not see how that convention affects this article [[User:Tizio]]. 11:09, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
::As of the now, the [[WP:DASH|manual of style]] recommends the en dash, so I've moved it back. [[User talk:Algebraist|Algebraist]] 12:32, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
