proposals (FL, 2018-08-21):

  • distinguish Instance from Individual/Particular, e.g., because categories may be instances of other categories
  • add notions of instance in contexts of computer science, e.g. object-orientation

proposals (RR, 2018-09-15):

  • According to philosophical sources, individual is not the same as particular. Therefore, remove the terms from being synonyms.
