This redirect seems to imply that the terms n-ary predicate and n-ary relation are synonymous. Am I the only one that thinks that strictly speaking that is not true? -- Jan Hidders 23:48 Mar 29, 2003 (UTC)

Not synonymous but currently the explanation of predicate is in the Mathematical relation article. - Patrick 03:04 Mar 30, 2003 (UTC)

I guess what I meant was that I would prefer it if predicate had its own page with a definition and mathematical relation linked to that instead of defining it itself. Not in the least because there's a lot more to tell about predicates and that doesn't belong on mathematical relation. -- Jan Hidders 08:14 Mar 30, 2003 (UTC)

Not to mention the other meanings of "predicate" in philosophy and grammar. This should be a disambiguation page, to Predicate (logic), Predicate (grammar) and Predicate (philosophy). At least the first two of these could be written now; I'll try to get to them soon. -- Toby 06:14 Apr 1, 2003 (UTC)
