is that those notions are too general. There are fundamental things you do with ideals on sets, such as take products of them and ask about Rudin-Keisler isomorphisms, that don't obviously generalize to the other sorts of ideals. Ideals on sets are studied in several contexts where the other sorts of

I just added the example above to a new "General examples" section, and moved the finite subset ideal there as well since it applies not just to the natural numbers. As I wrote in my edit summary, please feel welcome to improve my changes in any way you see fit (up to and including reverting them,

I have to say that I don't think ColdFusion650's bold merges really worked. I'm not sure exactly what I was suggesting should happen -- mainly I wanted to get a discussion going about whether there were too many articles and what to do about it -- but it certainly wasn't just dumping large sections
451:
I have seen some papers where ideal containing all singletons is called an admissible ideal. Quick search in google books did not yield some book references for this. By the way the books I have checked usually defined filter and ideal in the dual way; i.e., if the authors included the condition

Well, but the "smoothing out" is actually the hard work. Right now the merged material appears as a disjointed collection of facts, and does not appear to be about the title topic. I want to keep this article primarily about ideals, not about measure theory -- if the measure theory needs to be
436:
Hmm, another convention to watch out for, if you're keeping track, is that it is sometimes assumed that all finite sets (equivalently, all singletons) are in the ideal. This is just to avoid trivialities and is usually mentioned when used, so perhaps it's not worth bringing up here.
253:
The information is here. It just needs to be smoothed out so that the integration is more seamless. From my reading of the article, Ideal set, null set, and negligible set are synonymous. Some of this is over my head as
Calculus 3 is as far as I've gotten in school so far.

It came to my mind that I do not know where on
Knowledge we discuss the relationship between filters, ideals, and finite-additive two-valued measures, and the relationship between completeness of the filters/ideals and additivity of measures. Is this anywhere? — Carl

Nice work! It did occur to me that, to make the article accessible to a broader audience, it might be a good idea to include some even simpler introductory examples. The one that comes immediately to mind would be the trivial ideal on

in the definition of an ideal and vice-versa. Perhaps
Knowledge should also be consitent in this? I am not sure whether it would influence other articles too much? (Are there many articles using set-theoretical ideals?)

that would be desired; the truth is that the ideals are the more important concept (which is why I wrote this article in the first place, as opposed to, say, expanding one of the three articles mentioned above).
