About G.W. Zinbiel edit
Maybe it would be careful to:
- replace "pseudonym he sometimes used" by "pseudonym he used at leat once";
- either remove the external link "biography", or warn the reader that it is a hoax from Loday

- That material was not encyclopedic. The statement that Loday named the algebra after a pseudonym is contradicted by a statement in his 2001 book, which I have used, and the personal web page is no doubt amusing but adds nothing to our understanding of the algebraic concept.

- The last reference shows he used the pseudonym at least once (after 2001, hence after having named the algebra). Anne Bauval (talk) 07:19, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
