   Format: MarkdownItexadded the definition of "coloured operad" to [[operad]] in the section "Rough definition" (by the way, should we not rather call these "pedestrian definition" or so instead of "rough"? The latter seems to suggest that there is something not quite working yet with these definitions, while in fact they are perfectly fine, just not as high-brow as other definitions.)

   Format: MarkdownItexI would tend to use an adjective like "explicit" rather than "pedestrian" -- to me "pedestrian" sounds a little unnecessarily derogatory. But I agree that this definition is not really any more "rough." I added a comment re: identification of colored operads with enriched symmetric multicategories.
