*'''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. —[[User:Bkell|Bkell]] 04:27, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
