::::::::The problem I see with the sentence "Entropy does not increase indefinitely" is that it relies for its logic on the paragraph previous to it, and that paragraph is faulty. [[User:Chjoaygame|Chjoaygame]] ([[User talk:Chjoaygame|talk]]) 09:26, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 
::::::::: I am concerned that you are referring to a paragraph that has been removed. Could you re-read the previous paragraph and tell me if you have objections to it and, if so, what they are.[[User:PAR|PAR]] ([[User talk:PAR|talk]]) 20:32, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 
:::::::You quoted Chetvorno: "But the title of the article is not Irreversibility, it is Entropy, the introduction gives readers no idea of what that is." This is not true, as seen by the statement "In thermodynamics, entropy is a numerical quantity that shows that many physical processes can go in only one direction in time.". The only way thermodynamic entropy presents itself to our senses and measuring instruments is through its change. Thermodynamic entropy cannot be experimentally measured, only its change.
