Talk:Pasting Lemma

Pages to be merge
I've taken a stab at refactoring the following pages:
 * Pasting Lemma
 * Pasting Lemma/Corollary 1
 * Pasting Lemma/Corollary 2
 * Continuity from Union of Restrictions
 * Continuous Mapping on Finite Union of Closed Sets
 * Continuous Mapping on Union of Open Sets

New proposed pages
I have refactored all of these pages under a top level page to be called Pasting Lemma.

Beneath this top level page are two subpages: one for open sets; the other for closed sets.

These pages state the lemma from a top-down perspective: a function is continuous when restricted to open/closed sets.

Below each of these subpages are two corollaries. One of the corollaries presents the pasting lemma from a bottom-up persepective: given a family of continuous functions the union function is continuous. The other corollary presents the pasting lemma from a bottom-up perspective given a pair of continuous functions.

See these pages for proposed changes:

 * That looks comprehensive and methodical, great work! One small suggestion I would like to make: to give a bit more descriptive names for the corollaries, e.g. "Corollary 1: Pasting Lemma for Continuous Mappings on Open Sets". That way, we emphasize the independent value of the corollaries more, and additionally it will be more intuitive to look for and find their redirects. Other than that, I would say that it is fit for implementation. &mdash; Lord_Farin (talk) 08:15, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
