Had this idea for a while. "Obsolete" sounds a little harsh, but basically, we have lots of pages that describe ideas that end up being half-baked versions of the system they eventually evolve into. When I started Robocoding, I enjoyed going through each of these and building them out and moving onto the next one. But I think it is probably misleading to a newcomer that looks at Category:Statistical Targeting and starts building an Averaged Bearing Offset gun without realizing that it's basically an inferior version of a GuessFactor gun. In a Robocode textbook, the former would either be left out or explained as a step on the way to GuessFactors, and I think the wiki pages should organize/link them similarly. Feedback welcome. =) --Voidious 16:33, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
