We currently have two different group pages: Mathematical group and Mathematical Group. I suggest simply deleting Mathematical group and redirecting it to Mathematical Group.

Seconded, with one caveat: the title of the final article should be "Mathematical group" to comply with naming standards. --AxelBoldt

Done.

The axiom of closure:

(Closure) for all a and b in G, a * b belong to G.

is superfluous, by definition of a binary operation. It's worth mentioning that closure follows from the definition, though.

The test of closure in the examples is in fact a test that the described mapping is inded a binary operation.

Any thoughts before I wade on in and make changes?
