30 Dec 2015 there is a message claiming the article is an orphan BUT The article on Automatic bug fixing is linked to by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_improvement_%28computer_science%29 and now also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_%28computing%29#See_also Bill W102102 (talk) 10:23, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Redirect Automatic bug fixing to Genetic improvement (computer science)
It appears that the page on Automatic bug fixing has been deleted and replaced by a link to the page on Genetic Improvement. I do not know why this has been done. Automatic bugfixing is not the same as genetic improvement!

The existing wikipedia entry on Automatic bug fixing was short. I am still hoping those more deeply involved with automated bugfixing might be persuaded to add to it. I have been in conversation with some of them. This can only happen if they have an existing entry to extend.

Can we restore the  Automatic bug fixing wikipedia entry. Bill W102102 (talk) 17:50, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, the article was redirected by an editor who felt that there was not sufficient neutral encyclopedic content and that readers would be better served by reading the genetic improvement article. If you ever want to expand the Automatic bug fixing article, the redirection is entirely reversible, just go to the history and revert the change. All the best!

Ok. I will ask the auto bug fixers if they can extend the little stub I created. Bill W102102 (talk) 09:56, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

At least one person has volenteered to take up the challange of extending the entry, so I have "undone" the last edit so that the entry is restored. Bill W102102 (talk) 10:41, 3 February 2016 (UTC)


 * You should not undo the redirect until you are ready to improve the article. It also sounds like you may have a conflict of interest. Deb (talk) 12:10, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Dear Deb, I am hoping the guys who know more about this will contribute to the article. So far, 2 have expressed some level of interest in doing so. One has suggested some text. May be others will also do so. However I do not know that they are wikipedia experts and so I am guessing that they will be less likely to help, if the existing text does not exist. Also deleting text may demotivate them. Bill W102102 (talk) 20:33, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
 * If the article isn't improved promptly, it will be deleted. Deb (talk) 12:08, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

I restructured the article and addressed all tags.Puppydragon (talk) 22:22, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
