Overall: @David Eppstein: good article. However, i'm not seeing where in the source has the word "unconvincing". Could you provide another source? Onegreatjoke (talk) 15:22, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Onegreatjoke: oops, sorry about that. The "unconvincing" quote is in the Fejes Toth source (doi:10.1080/00029890.1975.11993840, JSTOR 2318414, probably paywalled). Fejes Toth credits it to an earlier work of Grünbaum [1] which uses slightly different wording; the hook uses the wording from Fejes Toth. Additional footnotes added for proper credit for the quote. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:39, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
