Actually the quadratic residue page is just better. Maybe this one should just redirect. I sort of threw this one together quickly, so it's not that good. What do others think? --[[User:ComplexZeta|ComplexZeta]] 22:05, 12 July 2006 (EDT)

I think you shouldn't bother to cover stuff like "what is the legendre symbol" and so on -- just put a sentence at the beggining saying that you need to understand Quadratic Residues before you understand Quadratic Reciprocity.  Then carry on with the content that is specific to reciprocity.--[[User:JBL|JBL]] 09:58, 13 July 2006 (EDT)

Someone who knows the subject better than I should probably take a look at Quadratic residues and figure out the material should be split between this article and that one. --Dschafer 21:36, 12 July 2006 (EDT)
