== No need to merge article with Cantor's first uncountability proof -- already contains its content ==

There is no need to merge this article with [[Cantor's first uncountability proof]] because this is a rewrite of that article with guidance from the GA Review of that article. What is needed is a redirect from [[Cantor's first uncountability proof]] to this new article. Note that '''Cantor's first uncountability proof''' appears in boldface in first paragraph so readers will know that this article contains the content of that article. --[[User:RJGray|RJGray]] ([[User talk:RJGray|talk]]) 15:37, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

:Ok, but in that case we needed to merge the histories to make it clearer that much of the content was rewritten from the older version. I have completed a history merge, so now the histories of both articles are in one place, and removed the merge tags. —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 21:41, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

== Constructive? ==

The lede text on constructiveness seems a bit confused. There's not clear evidence for a controversy; the only "against" is "Stewart, 2015" but that's not enough to identify who Stewart is. Or who Sheppard 2014 might be. Fraenkel is a heavyweight though so you'd need a good reason to disagree with him [[User:William M. Connolley|William M. Connolley]] ([[User talk:William M. Connolley|talk]]) 22:46, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

:Those are standard Harvard citations and the sources are listed at the end, so it is clear enough to me what the references point to. There seems to be an entire section of the article related to this issue, with numerous sources. &mdash;&nbsp;Carl <small>([[User:CBM|CBM]]&nbsp;·&nbsp;[[User talk:CBM|talk]])</small> 15:05, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

== A replacement for the removed sentence ==

Line 280 ⟶ 271:

The simplest modification would be to state that these two points are at best the end points. If not the induction actually runs better.

== visited? ==

"...he second column lists the terms visited during the search for the first two terms..."

what do you mean by "terms _visited_"? [[Special:Contributions/217.149.171.204|217.149.171.204]] ([[User talk:217.149.171.204|talk]]) 08:12, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
