My bad

Seems I rushed in and implemented the Sierpinski curve from the wikipedia page (on the left) not the Sierpinski square curve on the right, then a couple of others followed suit. Therefore I created Sierpinski_curve and moved the Phix/Go/Julia entries there. --Pete Lomax (talk) 16:49, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

To be fair, I think the Wikipedia article is extremely confusing on what is and what isn't a 'Sierpiński square curve'. I think what we had before is sometimes called a 'Sierpiński square snowflake' so it was an understandable mistake. --PureFox (talk) 17:20, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
