What does "canonical" mean? edit

The word "canonical" (a word with no formal definition and which means different things to different people) is used about ten times in the "definition" of a prestack. Maybe someone who knows what they're talking about might want to use instea a word which has a meaningful definition (e.g. natural isomorphism, isomorphism which commutes with this list of stuff-which-isomorphisms-might-commute-with but not necessarily with this other list...).

This isn’t a fix but I have renamed the section to "Informal definition". —- Taku (talk) 07:49, 25 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
