A merge was proposed by [[R.Koot]] - Shall we discuss it?

*'''Support''' - [[Queue]], [[FIFO]] and [[Circular Buffer]] all seem to be describing the same data structure - it seems reasonable to keep them in one article rather than three. But which of the three places should we move it to? And should we merge the 'accounting' and 'engineering' bits as well as the 'computer science' bits?

*'''Oppose''' for now -- they are not synonyms. [[FIFO]] is the behavior; [[Queue]] is an abstract data structure which produces that behavior; [[Circular buffer]] is a particular implementation that can be used for queues. As [[FIFO]] shows, the behavior is not limited to computer science, let alone to queues; as [[Queue]] shows, circular buffers are not the only implementation. There may be merits to doing some merging, but they have to be carefully considered. -- [[User:Antaeus Feldspar|Antaeus Feldspar]] 18:20, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

*'''Oppose'''. Agree with Antaeus Feldspar; also consider that there is an article on [[LIFO]], so having an article on [[FIFO]] is nice symmetry. &mdash;[[User:Bkell|Bkell]] 04:27, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
