(How about this change to the description.) |

Line 5:
:There are a few ambiguities in the algorithm description too IMO. Should you consider the first letter when encoding H? Should Wheeler encode as WALAR or WHALAR? ''I'' believe that it '''should''' consider the first character (WALAR - W is a non-vowel so remove the H) but it is open to interpretation.
:Also, When removing terminal S or A. If the last characters are AS and you remove the S, do you then need to remove the newly terminal A or should you only remove the last character once? Should Louis encode as L or LA? Again, it is open to interpretation. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] 21:03, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
::Well I changed it back to draft status as I thought it needed just this kind of discussion to improve the task description.
::How about changing the task description to explicitly state that just the wikipedia algorithm need be implemented but leaving it open for implementors to add extra functionality as long as they state that they are doing that (and maybe what extra functionality is being added).? --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 06:49, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
