I'm stymied. I wrote Leibniz rule and tried to give it that name on the metadata page. Somehow the system added "(generalized product rule)", or something like that, to the name. I overlooked that addition and screwed up the metadata page. I can't go back to the metadata page and don't know why the system changed my name by adding something in brackets. --Paul Wormer 14:31, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

PS: I fixed it, my fault!

You did? What did you do? I moved the pages to "Leibniz rule". Was there an edit conflict? --Peter Schmitt 14:58, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

I myself was responsible for the long name and fixed the metadata (giving two entries the long name). One minute later you moved the whole cluster to the (present) short name.--Paul Wormer 15:26, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

But you did not want the long name, didn't you? One might hesitate to choose between "Leibniz rule" and "Leibniz product rule". In German it would be (verallgemeinerte) Leibnizsche Produktregel, I do not know about the usage of "product" in English. The correct spelling could be "Leibniz' rule". --Peter Schmitt 15:44, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
