Redundant term, turn into disambiguation page[edit]

Consensus division as used in this article seems to be completely redundant, I haven't the foggiest why Mark de Longueville and Rade T. Živaljević stuck it into their article which has an interesting theorem which sticking this in the introduction only detracts from. I was unable to find any other cites to the term as a synonym of fair division. However I was able to find another earlier use of the term as a type of way of deciding entitlement (fair division) which is really a part of cooperative game - it is something fair division doesn't cover but takes as a given. This other meaning is given in Impartial division of a dollar Geoffroy de Clippel*, HerveMoulin*, Nicolaus Tideman and it is equally lacking in references to it.

I therefore intend turning this into a disambiguation page and distributing the contents of Category:Consensus division. Dmcq (talk) 11:31, 31 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
