I'm putting the article formally {{on hold}} now, so you have seven days to begin addressing the points above. <span class="nowrap">— '''[[User:Bilorv|Bilorv]]'''<sub>[[Special:Contribs/Bilorv|(c)]][[User talk:Bilorv|('''talk''')]]</sub></span> 01:50, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

* The review says this: <blockquote>"Cantor's article is short, not even four and a half pages" — Can we trim this to "Cantor's article is under five pages long" or "Cantor's article is roughly four and a half pages"?</blockquote> But I think it is better as it is. Informing the reader that that length is small by comparison to what was (and is) typical is relevant.
:
: Then the review says <blockquote>"It begins with a discussion of the real algebraic numbers" — Would "definition" be better than "discussion"?</blockquote> There is indeed a terse definition at the beginning. Then there is a longer discussion that includes such things as the fact that every interval about a real algebraic number contains infinitely many others.
:
: Next the review says <blockquote>"The first part of this theorem implies the "Hence" part ..." — Agreed, but Cantor doesn't describe this in the article, right? Or am I missing the point/context of this paragraph?</blockquote> But should we have no discussion of trivial consequences of what Cantor said?
:
: Then we see this: <blockquote>it seems like there should be inline citations somewhere for the table in the first proof, the closed interval simplification in the second proof and the entirety of the example of Cantor's construction</blockquote> {{ping|Bilorv}}What do you mean by "the closed interval simplification"?
:
: Next: <blockquote>"One of these theorems is "Cantor's revolutionary discovery" that ..." — It's not clear where this quote originates</blockquote> But a work of Joseph Dauben is cited.
