Not an encyclopic entry
This article requires a complete rewrite to make it accessible to a non specialist reader. As it stands it is totally opaque to anyone without mathematical training. Is there anyone who has a knowledge of the subject that they wish to share with a general readership who would be prepared to do such a rewrite?

Making it clear that measurement does not cause interference
I was new to quantum computing before reading this, and it took me some time to see that the interference happens before the measurement, and is not caused by it. I've edited the article to reflect that. The previous version has the advantage that it was shorter. I have nothing against reverting the edit.
Circuit diagram
I'm pretty new at this so I could be wrong, but for Simon's algorithm shouldn't the second register be initialized to 0? Emma Strubell (talk) 21:21, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
I'm also pretty sure that the hadamard on the lower register shouldn't be there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.68.40.79 (talk) 10:50, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Proposed move: Simon's algorithm -> Simon's problem
I think the article should be named after the problem instead of the algorithm. The problem was invented to show a separation and didn't exist before. (Unlike, say, Shor's algorithm for factorization or Grover's algorithm for the search problem.) --Robin (talk) _Simon's_problem" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:28, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
- Makes sense to me. Would make it a better place to mention the deterministic solution as well. Skippydo (talk) 03:22, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
Measuring the registers
"We perform a simultaneous measurement of both registers". Why not only measure the first register? 132.65.249.52 (talk) 11:55, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
