(The Wikipedia article on "computer chess" has sub-articles on minimax, alpha-beta, killer heuristic, and null move. The alpha-beta entry has pseudocode.) Anyone can contribute articles or sub-articles to Wikipedia. Somebody here, for example, could submit a sub-article on "futility pruning", which has been suggested, but not completed, in the "computer chess" article. There is already a link at the bottom of the Wikipedia "computer chess" article to the Computer Chess Club.
