    Thanks for the addition. I have edited a little:

    Have added hyperlinks (just enclose technical keywords in double square brackets!).

    Have changed the notation for the delooping groupoid of GG from GG to 𝔹G\mathbb{B}G.

    Adjusted wording a little.

    Now it reads like so, but be invited to edit further:

    Writing 𝔹G\mathbb{B} G for the category with a single object *\ast and the group GG as its hom set (i.e. the delooping groupoid of GG), define a functor F:𝔹G→F \colon \mathbb{B}G \to Cat to send that single object to the delooping groupoid of Γ\Gamma, i.e. *↦𝔹Γ* \mapsto \mathbb{B}\Gamma and to send the morphisms G→Aut(Γ)G \to Aut(\Gamma) according to the given action of GG on Γ\Gamma.

    Then the delooping of the semidirect product group Γ⋊G\Gamma \rtimes G arises as the Grothendieck construction of this functor:

    𝔹(Γ⋊G)≃∫ 𝔹GF \mathbb{B}( \Gamma \rtimes G) \simeq \int_{\mathbb{B}G}F

  7. In the section on internal semidirect products the roles of (\Gamma) and (G) were backward. (\Gamma) should be given as the normal subgroup and (G) as the subgroup isomorphic to the quotient.

  11. Added a detail about how the semidirect product relates to the self-conjugation action - in this sense, it is the “free” or “initial” way to internalise a group action as conjugation.
