Help:Multiple Definitions


 * For the general help page on definitions, see Help:Definitions

This pages lists policies regarding definition pages where the same thing is defined in different equivalent ways.

Page Structure

 * For general remarks on page structure, see Help:Page Structure

Under the Definition section heading comes the introductory enumeration of concepts used in the definition, as usual.

Below this, the different equivalent definitions are transcluded. See Help:Transclusion.

The introductory part is copied identically on the transcluded subpages, but not inside the  tags.

A link to a proof showing their equivalence (see below) is placed in the Also see section.

Equivalence Proofs
The equivalence of definitions is proved on a page called:
 * Equivalence of Definitions of [Concept that is Defined]

Example:
 * Equivalence of Definitions of Quotient Field

For information on which words to capitalize, see Help:Page Naming.

The equivalence proof gets the category Definition Equivalences.

Use of the TFAE template is encouraged. This puts the page automatically in the Definition Equivalences category.

For more information on categories, see Help:Categories.
