[[WP:NEO|Nelogism]] coined by [[Joel Spolsky]], mentioned by him a few times but otherwise not apparently picked up in any [[WP:RS|reliable sources]]. I redirected to the author's article as an easy compromise for lack of independent notability, but this was reverted.

*'''Merge''' to [[Joel Spolsky]]. This algorithm isn't independently notable (it's mentioned in blogs, forums, etc, but there's a lack of coverage in reliable sources). But it seems odd that the article on Spolsky mentions the algorithm without explaining what it is, so at least a selective merge would be useful. --[[User:Colapeninsula|Colapeninsula]] ([[User talk:Colapeninsula|talk]]) 16:05, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
