Weak Goldbach conjecture edit
Wikipedia content should be based on verifiable reliable sources and should also be consistent. You changed the sentence to:
- The strong Goldbach conjecture implies the conjecture that all odd numbers greater than 7 are the sum of three primes, which is known today variously as the "weak" Goldbach conjecture, the "odd" Goldbach conjecture, or the "ternary" Goldbach conjecture.
But the linked article says "Every odd number greater than 7 can be expressed as the sum of three odd primes", so you redefined it. Many sources also say odd primes, for example http://mathworld.wolfram.com/GoldbachConjecture.html. Finally, it would be a little strange to say "greater than 7" for something also holding for 7 = 2+2+3."
