I added a additional entry to a Disambig page, and you left a note on my talk page that I need to cite my sources on that edit.
As Disambig pages don't really ever have <ref> tags, what is the issue?Larek (talk) 16:38, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Law of Contradiction & Principle of Non-Contradiction

[edit]

Hi Larek,

The Law of Contradiction (LC) is different from the Principle of Non-Contradiction (PNC). The Principle is fundamental and is not derived. The theorem or Law is derived from basic principles, which is what Russell&Whitehead did in the Principles of Mathematics (PM). See http://scholarcommons.usf.edu/etd/1465/ , for example, for the circularity that entails. There are no principles of mathematics without first assuming the PNC, so deriving it is an exercise in tautology. For this reason, I would think that the less said about the Principles of Mathematics, the less confusion is introduced into the article.

Do you disagree? BlueMist (talk) 01:12, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On the Law of Contradiction. No I don't disagree, As I didn't include the {def}. My edit was to correct the existing PM quote as a historical reference. I Then added the "Law of Contradiction" since there were already three titles (both laws and principals) and (non- and not non-), Since that is how its refereed to in PM which is just a line or two below. It just seemed how the arithmetical was already going..
As for if a PM reference is confusing.. That's up for grabs. This is an encyclopedia, so historical references are a good thing. Its a very short blurb. And Even though principals are not derived, they didn't spontaneously exist either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Larek (talkcontribs) 15:44, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I guess the title of the article could be changed to Principle, and Law should then have its own paragraph. meh... BlueMist (talk) 01:53, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
