See also[edit]
I'm no expert, but it seems to me that all the "see also"s for this page have nothing to do with Shape Theory, and have only been put there because of a misunderstanding. -- anonymous
- Skimming through the reference mentioned in the article, it looks very much like you're right. I thus removed the "see also"s. Many thanks for alerting us to this. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 20:49, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
The original pre-Borsuk shape theory[edit]
The shape theory, under a different name, was created by a student of Solomon Lefschetz, perhaps in 1948 (or even 1940?). Then it was totally forgotten, and rediscovered by Karol Borsuk. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wlod (talk • contribs) 11:04, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
Inappropriate claim[edit]
" Due to the circumstance, Holsztyński's paper was hardly noticed, and instead a great popularity in the field was gained by a much less advanced (more naive) paper by Sibe Mardešić and Jack Segal, which was published a little later, Fund. Math. 72, 61-68, y.1971." - This seems like a totally inappropriate sentence. At least, it needs to be substantiated with citations. -- anonymous — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.6.53.33 (talk) 23:03, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
