    Baez and Dolan mainly did the periodic table of k-tuply monoidal n-categories; this article was written like all we did was “slightly distort” some existing table.

    By the way, The wording in that line is due to rev 6 from Jan 2009, by Toby. Even with your replacement of “the” by “their” I find this line unclear (what “distortion”??). There is room to add more than just 2 letters here, for clarification.

  1. I have attempted to clarify this now, and added a reference. Also removed a couple of paragraphs of waffle.

  2. The wording of the page was difficult to follow in a number of places in my opinion; hopefully it is better now. We should extract the two direct links to papers into proper references, but I’ve run out of time for the moment.
