Sune (algorithm) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)

Subject of article is not notable and is written like a how-to guide. This algorithm is only one of many that a typical speedcuber uses and does not merit inclusion. Paiev (talk) 23:58, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Actually, this technique is known under several names, none of which are notable. One comment, though... when the subject of an article is an algorithm, the article will sound like a how-to guide just by virtue of explaining the algorithm and what it is used for. So be careful, in situations like this, about invoking WP:NOT#HOWTO. See Quicksort. --Blanchardb-^{MeMyEarsMyMouth}-timed 01:52, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I only mentioned WP:NOT#HOWTO because of the tone that the article was written in. Paiev (talk) 21:42, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Not an independently notable topic; at most, might merit some mention on Rubik's Cube. --Russ (talk) 16:51, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
