:Sure, that looks like a reasonable outline for the whole category (though with most of the emphasis on things covered in school -- there are currently many more advanced pages here). What I am wondering is what subtopics of these merit their own pages, and whether we want any rigor in defining basic concepts.  What topics in number theory merit their own pages?  Should we attempt to define something like a number field (with appropriate motivation and examples, of course), or just write elementary things like Fermat's little theorem?  Or no subpages at all?  I'm just not sure of the scope that CP is aiming for in these pages, so it's hard to get started writing. --[[User:MarkGall|MarkGall]] 10:53, 1 July 2009 (EDT)
