- ... that Achieser-Zolotarev filters (based on Zolotarev polynomials) find applications in waveguide despite having a low-frequency insertion loss worse than the more common Chebyshev filter? Source: Levy, p. 529. Cameron, p. 399 states the second part of the hook more directly than Levy (although it is there).

- @RoySmith: Please indicate exactly which occurence of "waveguide" (and in which of the two articles) should be plural. SpinningSpark 22:15, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry, I meant in the hook. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:43, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Doh, of course you did. No, not really; it's waveguide the format, not waveguides the components. But if you are going to reject the hook, it really doesn't matter. SpinningSpark 06:41, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hmmm, still reads strange to me, but maybe that's just a UK/US English thing, and if we're using ALT1, it's a non issue anyway. You're
good to go. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:12, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

Nit: the sentence, "The filter is especially useful in some waveguide applications" could use a source, to show that it's not just the wiki-author's opinion.
- That sentence is in the lead. It is conventional not to put cites in the lead for information already covered in the body of the article.
- True, but you had referenced the sentence before that, so I assumed you were not using that convention. I have no strong feeling about this either way, so it's fine the way it is. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:43, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- The cite in the lead is for the alt spelling. That doesn't appear anywhere else in the article, and it couldn't really be sensibly worked in anywhere. SpinningSpark 06:41, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

- On the hook, try this
- ALT1 ... that Zolotarev polynomials were introduced in 1868, but not applied to Achieser-Zolotarev filters until 1970?
- SpinningSpark 22:15, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
- I like ALT1 better than the original. I think it's more approachable to most people (even those with a technical background). -- RoySmith (talk) 00:43, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- @RoySmith: Is there a reason you still haven't given this a tick? SpinningSpark 06:48, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
