Remove copyedit

Header added. —Nils von Barth (nbarth) (talk) 23:42, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There's a copyedit tag on the article, but it looks pretty good to me, I'm going to remove the tag. EvilPhoenix 19:18, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

Two Reidemeister I moves?

Header added. —Nils von Barth (nbarth) (talk) 23:42, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Although it's topologically irrelevant, the image looks to me as if there were nearly two Reidemeister I moves applied to the orange loop. Of course the Whitehead link could also be archieved without any Reidemeister moves at all... --Rubik's Cube (talk) 00:15, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Do you have a question? --C S (talk) 10:00, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


"Discovered"

Not sure Whitehead really "discovered" it; rather, he found its connections to deep mathematics... AnonMoos (talk) 19:29, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unknotting number is 1, not 2
