| Jan 16, 2015 at 19:27 | comment | added | Asaf Karagila Mod | @Grigory: No, puzzle is rarely a mathematically viable topic; but I don't see how it's any different than a logical seasoning tag. I mean, unless you're question is specifically about some other topic in mathematics, in which case it's clear that logical seasoning is not the topic; then you question is essentially about solving some puzzle using logical seasoning. It's a superset, then, and I don't see the need for adding a sub-tag. It won't cause people not to use [logic] anyway. | |
| Jan 15, 2015 at 21:12 | comment | added | Grigory M | Oh, and «something mathematically viable .. e.g. a puzzle» — do you really consider (puzzle) to be a good description of an area of mathematics? To me it sounds only slightly better than (question)... (And (logical-reasoning) tries to solve a part of this problem by adding a more descriptive tag to at least some 'puzzles'.) | |
| Jan 15, 2015 at 21:09 | comment | added | Grigory M | Well, I don't really insist on this particular name — but it seems that there is a need for a tag about, well, logical reasoning (including 'logical problems' in the sense of... I don't know Smullyans book — tagging them formal logic «including model theory, proof theory, computability theory» seems hardly appropriate). | |
| Jan 15, 2015 at 21:02 | comment | added | Asaf Karagila Mod | @Grigory: I still don't think it's a good fit. Either the question is about something mathematically viable (e.g. a puzzle, a game-theoretic notion, probability, etc.) or it's not a good fit for the site. | |
| Jan 15, 2015 at 20:52 | comment | added | Grigory M | @Asaf The idea of this name is that it's for questions that just about logical-reasoning — and to me this logic looks quite similar to names like number-theory or set-theory (which are obviously not just for any questions that ask to find some number or include some sets :-) | |
| Jan 15, 2015 at 19:00 | comment | added | Asaf Karagila Mod | What mathematical questions (i.e. not reference requests or big lists) are not about logical reasoning? (As for the relative cleanliness of the logic tag, you're welcome. :-)) | |
