[edit] Non-determinism

This article is a spawn of another article pending deletion. Please see this discussion for more information. The article itself is irrelevant, being that "Non-Determinism" is not an actual philosophical proposition. Grendel 04:40, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Perhaps redirect to Libertarianism (metaphysics) or Indeterminism? A possible search term. Tevildo 14:57, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to indeterminism, which is listed by the main article determinism as the proper term for the negation of determinism. - AdelaMae ^{(talk - contribs)} 20:41, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment "Non-determinism" is a term used in computer science, see Nondeterministic finite state machine 132.205.45.148 01:06, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Nondeterministic finite state machine is my vote. --DaveG12345 03:07, 8 July 2006 (UTC) (see below)--DaveG12345 19:20, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment I would suggest an appropriate dab-link on the "Indeterminism" page ({{Redirect|Non-determinism|the computer science term|Nondeterministic finite state machine}}, or something similar), if we do decide to redirect, rather than just redirecting this fairly generic term to a very specific use of it.

• Redirect/create dab, etc. per Tevildo. I thought along the same lines after posting, then forgot all about it. --DaveG12345 19:20, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
• Recreate as dab. (There's no harm in that.) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 23:25, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
