Cycle sort is an in-place, unstable sorting algorithm, a comparison sort that is theoretically optimal in terms of the total number of writes to the original array, unlike any other in-place sorting algorithm. (wikipedia.org)
How can bubble sort algorithm be implemented in C? (codeproject.com)
Bubble sort is a sorting algorithm that compares two nearby elements and swaps them until they are out of order. (codeproject.com)
In a paper published today in the journal PLOS Computational Biology , they present an algorithm that uses Wikipedia traffic data to estimate the rates of diseases in the real world - and project imminent outbreaks. (vox.com)
Wiki2
From historic examples of anonymous conflicted edits such as those uncovered by WikiScanner and in the United States Congress to more recent controversies like those involving Bell Pottinger, Wiki-PR and Harvard's Belfer Center, Wikipedia has long been challenged by conflicts of interest, "paid editing" and related issues. (wikimedia.org)
At the same time the server has a lot of wait state, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_state , time. (lu.se)
Performs1
The following Python implementation[circular reference] performs cycle sort on an array, counting the number of writes to that array that were needed to sort it. (wikipedia.org)

The topic of this conversation hour is *Navigating The Wikipedia Library *(TWL), and the speaker is Sam Walton from the Wikimedia Foundation, who has been working on the TWL project since 2016. (wikimedia.org)
Because the Wikimedia Foundation (which owns and operates Wikipedia) is much more public with its data, this isn't as big of a problem. (vox.com)
Sortable1
a sort key will be added to the output for use in sortable tables. (wikipedia.org)

In one recent example, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who is under federal and state investigation for mishandling the COVID-19 pandemic and growing list of scandals, is described on his Wikipedia page in a positive light while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a potential GOP frontrunner for the 2024 presidential election, is painted as a partisan hack who ignored the science. (johnlocke.org)
An explanation that would be suitable for a Wikipedia page on the topic (which is stub at the moment). (stackexchange.com)
Restrictions were put in place so that many of the most important election-related pages, such as the main page about the U.S. 2020 Presidential Election, could be edited only by the most trusted and experienced Wikipedia editors. (wikimediafoundation.org)
Click "Edit this Page" on any Wikipedia article and then put your cursor at the location you'd like to add a citation. (activehistory.ca)
And even then, the utility is limited - a Google search returns the Theme Hospital Wikipedia page as the first result. (stackoverflow.com)
Next, they collected publicly-available page view data for every single page on Wikipedia in the relevant language. (vox.com)

At the conclusion of the amusing segment, Colbert instructs his audience to find the Wikipedia entry on elephants , and edit it to say that "the number of elephants has tripled in the last six months. (techdirt.com)
Re: Edit requirements for access by Sam Walton Hi, I'm the Product Manager for The Wikipedia Library, thanks for starting this conversation! (wikimedia.org)
The survey asked me to rank the importance of a number of reasons I did not edit Wikipedia more often. (activehistory.ca)
List4
To illustrate the idea of cycle sort, consider a list with distinct elements. (wikipedia.org)
Repeating this process for every element sorts the list, with a single writing operation if and only if an element is not already at its correct position. (wikipedia.org)
That happened seven years ago when a Wikipedia user overlooked The Federalist's long list of "featured-in" publications and important interviews to try to delete our publication's entry because, according to the user, it "does not pass the threshold for notability. (johnlocke.org)
Statistics from List of Wikipedias . (wikimedia.org)
Implementation1
But if you search on "bubble sort", you can easily find an implementation in C. However, your instructor probably knows about the site I'm referring to, so if you just copy their code, you're likely to find yourself in trouble. (codeproject.com)
Articles9
Typically categories should be hidden if they are concerned with the maintenance or administration of the Wikipedia project itself but include mainspace articles. (wikipedia.org)
It is essentially 'the Wikipedia of pros and cons,' centralizing scattered arguments from editorials, and books into comprehensive pro/con articles. (instantfundas.com)
I'm not exactly sure what level is suitable for Wikipedia article (different articles seem to be aimed at different levels of expertise) or exactly what you're looking for. (stackexchange.com)
I started editing a few Wikipedia articles lately. (activehistory.ca)
Should graduate students or early career historians spent time writing Wikipedia articles when they should be finishing their dissertations or working on their books/articles for peer-review? (activehistory.ca)

Is editing technology names to link to corresponding Wikipedia articles useful? (stackoverflow.com)
In 8 of the 14 cases, the combined group of Wikipedia articles matched the actual disease rate extremely closely. (vox.com)
Edits4
Nearly 800 edits to election-related Wikipedia pages were reverted by the community between November 3 and November 7. (wikimediafoundation.org)
When we say '500 edits and 6 months of editing' this generally puts folks we're pitching to at ease, and makes them confident the program isn't likely to be used by people who aren't actively editing Wikipedia and have simply registered a free account to use the library for personal reasons. (wikimedia.org)
There is a particular user - a prolific editor with close to 50000 edits - who I frequently notice has edited inline links to Wikipedia into posts. (stackoverflow.com)
Additionally, I think that many of the things that this user's edits turn into Wikipedia links either have much more natural link targets or needn't have links at all. (stackoverflow.com)
Fairly1
When linking to information about technologies, on the other hand, it seems to me that Wikipedia is a fairly unhelpful source. (stackoverflow.com)
Language1
As we say in conclusion: *"The ultimate objective of the Abstract Wikipedia effort is to make knowledge more accessible and usable for everyone, regardless of their language or background. (wikimedia.org)
Simply2
Unlike nearly every other sort, items are never written elsewhere in the array simply to push them out of the way of the action. (wikipedia.org)
already there a lot of commercial links that look somewhat like real pages from wikipedia entries but the only job is to simply redirect to link farms. (techdirt.com)
Cite1
I've had some of my law students cite to Wikipedia as a valid source of information. (byrnerobotics.com)
Results1
While voters waited - and waited - for the results to come in, Wikipedia editors across the globe stood ready. (wikimediafoundation.org)
Search1
I don't expect job search committees put too much weight on editing Wikipedia when they consider a candidates academic CV. (activehistory.ca)
Topic1
They did so by going after a topic that would get even more attention among techies: Wikipedia. (techdirt.com)
Find2
I generally avoid Wikipedia as a technical source because I find it is usually overly waffly, focused more on history than on technical documentation, and too likely to have technical errors for me to trust it. (stackoverflow.com)
They parsed each language's Wikipedia traffic data to find the ten particular pages that best matched with the known disease data. (vox.com)
Time9
When the array contains only duplicates of a relatively small number of items, a constant-time perfect hash function can greatly speed up finding where to put an item1, turning the sort from Θ(n2) time to Θ(n + k) time, where k is the total number of hashes. (wikipedia.org)
A lot of people are using the internet, for good and evil, and it's time for wikipedia to also move with the times. (techdirt.com)
Also may I add, it's only time until spammers start using wikipedia to spam. (techdirt.com)
It's finally time to have an open, frank and comprehensive discussion about paid editing and public relations in Wikipedia. (wikimedia.org)
The sort key is produced by {{ nts }} and is based on the SI unit of time (the second). (wikipedia.org)
The main U.S. Election article saw just 33 reversions during the same time frame - a testament to the community's preparedness and the defenses Wikipedia editors put in place. (wikimediafoundation.org)
As a friend suggested in my question about editing Wikipedia on Twitter, she already spends enough time doing things that will not help get her a paying job. (activehistory.ca)
So the lack of time, career advancing credit, and warnings against writing about our own research, together creates some high barriers against regular participation from academic historians (not to mention the historians who distrust the whole Wikipedia crowd-sources approach to creating an encyclopedia). (activehistory.ca)
After having been convinced of the importance of engaging with Wikipedia a few months ago, I've finally set aside some time to get started. (activehistory.ca)
Article2
All authors of the article are listed, sorted by the number of letters they contributed. (wikipedia.org)
You don't, however, need to jump straight into writing new article for Wikipedia. (activehistory.ca)
User2
In about 2-3 years I predict the onslaught of automated bots looking for topics on wikipedia to link to link farms with keyword analysis, followed quickly by a full user system with captcha and everything. (techdirt.com)
So, I ask Meta: should the user who is editing in these Wikipedia links desist from doing so, or are they helpful? (stackoverflow.com)
