Request received to merge articles: Object theory into Object language; dated: 08/2021. Proposer's Rationale: The page Object theory is entirely predicated on a misunderstanding of a description given by Kleene in his text Introduction to Metamathematics, which is frequently cited throughout the article. Kleene describes in this text how one theory (in the sense of model theory) may be interpreted in terms of another, and when doing so uses the the terms "metatheory" and "object theory" to refer to these two theories respectively. Kleene is here using the phrase "object theory" precisely in the sense of Object language, but it seems that somebody has created the page Object theory under the grave misapprehension that there is a specific area of mathematics called "Object theory". Of course, there is not - and subsequently much of the rest of the page is transparently a very low-quality attempt at explaining what an object language is by means of "examples". I do not think much if any of it is salvageable, and that the correct procedure here would be to simply blank-and-redirect the page. Discuss here. Jackcrawf3 (talk) 12:38, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
