Article is really starting to take shape! Good hyper linking of Hamilton's thinking just might help us to preserve what little is left of our collective sanity. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Quaternionist|Quaternionist]] ([[User talk:Quaternionist|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Quaternionist|contribs]]) 16:43, 15 April 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I took the liberty of deleting the last section of this article. It was written mostly by a less sophisticated user, and while there are some good ideas in this section, if it is possible that we could re-agree that this article should be devoted exclusively to Hamilton's point of view, which was the consensus when it was agree as a result of the deletion discussion.
According to this plan, we leave comparison with other notation systems, to other articles. We keep the article about the views of Hamilton, using other classical quaternionists as good secondary sources, but leave contrasting this view with other views to articles which take a more general approach to the subject.
Recall in the deletion discussion it was agreed to remove all original research from the article. Contrasting Hamilton's thinking with other thinking, is the source of that problem, and needs to be in other articles.
