- 16:12, November 15, 2009 diff hist +1,473 General theory of relativity More introductory material, and try to improve the "this encyclopedia" stuff. Still not crazy about self-referential articles, but this may have to do.

- 03:43, November 15, 2009 diff hist -1 General theory of relativity Capitalization. The practice for article titles seems to be "title case". And this article is not following it. Oops.
- 03:39, November 15, 2009 diff hist +843 Talk:General theory of relativity →Yay! New intro!: capitalization, charter/scope
- 02:45, November 15, 2009 diff hist +1 m General theory of relativity →Coordinate Systems and Spacetime Diagrams: Oops. Kate's paragraph is still part of the intro. Stake out my territory farther down.

- 03:58, November 7, 2009 diff hist +2,454 Principle of induction Huge rewrite. Stepping closer to controversial topics than is usual for me!
- 03:08, November 7, 2009 diff hist -5 Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem Put in stuff about accumulation points. I hope I haven't messed up the economics stuff, but it doesn't seem very clear, either before or after. Can someone tell us just what the theorem says about e
- 02:41, November 7, 2009 diff hist 0 m Mathematics I'm sure this is the word you intended.
- 02:39, November 7, 2009 diff hist +202 Pierre Simon Laplace "Calculus" had an older meaning; I think this is what he meant.

- 03:50, October 31, 2009 diff hist +210 Principle of induction Took out Bremermann's limit--it has nothing to do with this topic, though it is interesting. Can anyone think of a better home for it?

- 01:56, October 31, 2009 diff hist +36 New! Induction Redirect. This page is linked from deduction,and is a common term for it in any case. current
- 01:52, October 31, 2009 diff hist +175 Deduction Restore removed material. It is NOT an induction; it is a perfectly valid deduction.
