I see your source work cited, but I suspect that the actual citation refers to the real number line, not the general topological space. My view is that we should try to match citations with the exactly matching entry in ProofWiki. If there is no such matching entry, then it ought to be created, rather than hang a citation on a page which does not match.

There's a reason for this: the plan is to make it so that by appropriate use of "prev" and "next" tags on these citations, the user will be able to effectively work through an entire book and see it in the wider context. I have a colleague (active in the "sister" site PlanetMath) who is working on his masters thesis at the moment, on aspects of the question "how do people learn?" One of the exercises was to experiment with the imposition of several "linear" orders to the multi-connected graph that is ProofWiki, based on pre-existing works in the mathematical field - and those linear orders defaulted to being "my library". For the last year or so that has been my burden. --prime mover 21:22, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

No-the citation is for sequences within metric spaces. But I see what you mean. Andrew Salmon 21:33, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
