Notability

I'm not sure how to meet the notability guidelines for this article. A Google search brings up quite a few programs that use the Brian's Brain rule; but none of them is what I'd call a good secondary source. Am I missing something obvious? — Ken g6 (talk) 17:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Color of animation

After a little Googling, it seems more websites think that the dying cells should be colored red: the first reference for example, and e.g. [1]. Should the animation's colors be changed to better match them? c.o.l.f.u.l.u.s‽ 00:19, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dead link?

The "Exploring Emergence: The Brain Rules" link seems to be dead. Can someone verify it?46.230.128.109 (talk) 20:26, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's archived at https://web.archive.org/web/20130922111828/http://llk.media.mit.edu/projects/emergence/mutants.html but looks of pretty low quality to me — I think we might as well just remove it rather than replacing it with the archived copy. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:28, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
