Talk:Conjunction elimination

Suggest to rename to "Conjunction elimination"

To my knowledge, the rule the article is about is usually called "conjunction elimination", or "and elimination"; I have never seen it called "simplification". The article had no references at all before 4 Mar 2012, when Gregbard gave at least three slovenly ones, which remained unimproved up to now. So since it's pretty impossible to verify the use of "simplification", that name shouldn't be claimed in the article, and the title should be renamed. After all, "simplification" is a rather general term which is "occupied" here without any verifiable source. - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 12:27, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• Agreed. A quick Google Books search shows that, in logic, "simplification" by itself may mean conjunction elimination, but in a broader context, it means many other things, for example in computer algebra. Even within logic, there are other important simplifications, e.g., A or AB = A, so Simplification (logic) is still too broad. This page should be moved to Conjunction elimination. --Macrakis (talk) 14:42, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
• Support - and move Simplification (disambiguation) to baseline. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:29, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
