   Format: MarkdownItexThe _Idea_-section at _[[filtered]]_ colimit stated nothing but that these are colimits that commute with finite limits. That was not too great for an Idea-section, so I have expanded a bit. Of course now there is more overlap with the _Definition_-section ;-) But anyway.

   Format: MarkdownItexI thought that Tim's chat should really be saying *two* things, so I said them both (making it two paragraphs).

   Format: MarkdownItexThanks Tim, and Toby! So suddenly this entry which has been sitting there all along has its Idea-section vastly improved.

   Format: MarkdownItexI only now realize that the entry to which _[[filtered colimit]]_ is redirecting is still titled _[[filtered limit]]_. That's a bit unfortunate. We should split this off into two dedicated entries. I won't do it now though. But maybe somebody reading this here and suffering from insomnia seizes this chance to gain some easily earned +1s...

   Format: MarkdownItexIn fact the present entry is almost wholly on filter colimits, so why is titled filtered limit? Was there a historical reason.
