Strand sort

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable sorting algorithm. Occurs in the DADS, but that's a tertiary source, not a secondary one, and only contains a dictionary definition; the DADS itself refers to a USENET posting. The only other potential source I could find is an arXiv pre-print that refers to this very article. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 21:52, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete. This one has more Google scholar hits that are actually relevant than JSort and J sort, but I still didn't find any in-depth coverage in high-quality sources. I don't think it passes WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:05, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - not enough in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG (although I agree with David Eppstein that it is more relevant than the two similar articles up for deletion), and does not appear to pass WP:NSOFT.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:44, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
