    It would be nice to add a link to monoidal category which is currently still spam-locked…

    I have now removed the lock on editing the page monoidal category. The commit can be seen on github. I made a trivial edit and then another one to put the page back as it was before, to test that editing was now possible.

    On the part about oplax monoidal categories, what does “weakly representable” mean? Does it mean satisfying the existence but not uniqueness part of representability (in type theory terminology β\beta but not η\eta)? Is there an appropriate link?

    It means the morphism only satisfies a universal property (with an ordinary isomorphism) for multimorphisms without extra objects added on each side. See for instance section 9 of http://tac.mta.ca/tac/volumes/24/21/24-21abs.html.

    added a parenthetical to indicate that first examples were discussed by Szlachányi 2012

    added pointer to

    where examples are claimed of skew-monoidal model categories whose homotopy categories become monoidal

    also, I have touched the wording and hyperlinking in the Idea-section, to be more to the point

    and added pointer to

    needed for the comments on skew-closure that had been there already
