Draft talk:List of Metaheuristics

This isn't so much original research as it is WP:synthesis because inclusion on the list, labeling as Metaheuristics is being defined by the creator of this article, not by the sources listed. The many sources listed help establish the fact that these studies exists but do little to categorize them as Metaheuristics.

Declined This is original search. For each item, a reliable source (independent of the authors) needs to state that that specific listed item is an important contribution. This has been discussed repeatedly at the article on metaheuristics, which has attracted a lot of COI/self-promotion links. Kiefer .Wolfowitz  22:55, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

Lets find secondary sources for these that we can and merge them back into the primary webpage or fix up this one. I have already started the process. Mouse7mouse9 22:02, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
