Talk:cpp/numeric/special functions

Can we please fix this page's URL? The URL "special_math" perpetuates a common misnomer. These are not "special mathematical functions" or functions for "special math", they are "special functions". That is an established term of art, see:


 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_functions
 * http://eqworld.ipmnet.ru/en/auxiliary/aux-specfunc.htm
 * http://specialfunctionswiki.org/
 * http://mathworld.wolfram.com/SpecialFunction.html

Can the URL please be changed to "cpp/numeric/special_functions" or "cpp/numeric/special_func" or something like that?

Also, the dropdown generated by Template:cpp/numeric/navbar_content says "Special mathematical functions", even though the actual heading at Numerics library is correct.
