[edit]

My editing was vandalized by a David Eppstein, so I looked it up online found this, I think for the balance of Wikipedia content, this should be included https://www.quora.com/Is-David-Eppstein-useful-for-Wikipedia Aggressive editing style is not professional — Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.30.131.151 (talk) 06:54, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In case anyone wants context, my best guess (from what I've been editing most recently) is that this is connected to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jenia Meng. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:24, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Program chairing

[edit]

Symposium on Discrete Algorithms has its own article and should be linked from this one, where it is mentioned in the second paragraph of "Research interests". More substantially, I was also program chair for the Scandinavian Symposium and Workshops on Algorithm Theory in 2018 (see e.g. DBLP for a source). —David Eppstein (talk) 19:02, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Partly done: I added the link, but I think listing the position as program chair would be a little excessive. The article already contains a lot of statements supported by WP:PRIMARY sources; if this position was noteworthy, there should be reporting on it in secondary sources.

DBLP is a secondary source. That's why I listed it in the request. It seems very strange to list all but one of the program chair positions for notable conferences, and snub one, for reasons that apply to all of them. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:04, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
