Thanks @Kvng: for the warm welcome and the useful links. I think my best initial stratagem is to try to combine practical edits to Erlang (unit) (and its talk page) with frequent peeks at the copious info for new users — figuratively speaking, I need to make sure I'm moving my arms around, otherwise I'll drown.

Help me! from reversion paralysis

Please help me with... the Radon–Nikodym theorem maths article. I'm wanting to avoid a slow-motion edit-war and seem to have ended up in paralysis.

An unnamed user edited the proof, which meant that when I came to read it (for the first time) shortly afterwards it seemed to me to be invalid. The previous version seemed basically okay, so I reverted the edit, adding an explanation at Talk:Radon–Nikodym theorem#Reverting proof to include Hahn decomposition. A while later, this was re-reverted anonymously by a different IP address (though quite possibly the same person), with no discussion.

At that point, I decided the best thing I could do was to add some extra detail to the Talk page expanding on my concerns, and to leave the main article untouched in the hope that a third editor might provide a fresh view. That was on 8 October 2020 and in the meantime nothing has happened. I'm not sure where best to go from here, so we end up with a reliable article. Any suggestions would be very welcome. Thanks, NeilOnWiki (talk) 18:33, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

NeilOnWiki, Hiya. Probably best to invite comment from WP:WikiProject_Mathematics by posting on their talk page. Best, Darren-M talk 20:41, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Thanks. Sounds fair enough: I'll give it a go. NeilOnWiki (talk) 08:23, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
