Talk:Haversine

This page appears to be superceded by Haversine_formula (most content is common to both pages, but Haversine_formula seems more up-to-date).

Should this page be removed, or re-directed to Haversine_formula?

 * It's fine as it is

 * I agree, it should remain as it is. The haversine formula is a specific equation in spherical geometry that uses the haversine function.  Haversine should link to the article Versine that defines the function, not an article that uses the function for something.


 * This is much the same as the reason why cosine redirects to trigonometric function, not to the law of cosines.
