The "non-deterministic" stuff and links to "non-deterministic algorithm" only appears in the introduction, not elaborated anywhere in the rest of the article. I think that can be a bit confusing for some... I'm seriously thinking about removing said links. Another thing is that cites no references at

But that doesn't mean an algorithm should be "non-deterministic" (there really isn't much point to make the result dependent on trivial factors such as time), just as stated in the paragraph: "Rewriting systems then do not provide an algorithm for changing one term to another, but a set of possible

Yes, yes! Please work on this article. For one thing, it needs more history. There may be some review articles that could be used to create an overview. At present it seems to have little content, but offers a series of formalizations of rewriting that have been created for different purposes. There

The citation of Davis et.al. in the Notes section has no counterpart in the Further Reading section, I think that maybe this is what's been originally intended (and that's why I didn't just added the citation under the FR section), so then the article needs another section, a References or

For example, the lead could offer some more background on what they're used for, and we could offer a few more examples. No concrete examples of string rewriting systems are given, yet these might be good intuitive starting points for some students.

is not much explanation of what those purposes might be. An improved article should have at least of bit of logic, algebra and computer science. It probably can't be very detailed but it should at least give the reader a feeling for the subject.

It looks like this article has a pretty steep curve: it has a very broad intro, then one example without much discussion, and then jumps into a very detailed abstract treatment. A bit more help could be offered for the uninitiated.

Various properties, simpler than Church-Rosser, are equivalent to it; here we These existence of these equivalent properties allows one to prove that a system is Church-Rosser with less work.
