My son has written a program to identify all the items on this list that are already wikipedia articles except for the case of the first letter in the second word. For example, Thue's Theorem is on the list. Thue's theorem is in wikipedia.

My first thought was to insert pointers, but that seems a waste of time and space. I am just deleting from the list all the names of articles that are on topics already covered. If anybody doesn't like this, they can revert. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rick Norwood (talkcontribs) .

My bot now takes care of this. By doing a comparison of all articles in these lists to existing Wikipedia articles and redirects, as well as with some statistical tricks which help guess whether a word should be upper case or not, I solved this problem. Also, incomplete links like Green's the... were taken care of. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 21:26, 29 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
