About the terms left & right annihilators

It seems that the terms defined in this article are different from those used in other literature. Usually, left (right, respectively) annihilator is defined to be a left (right, respectively) ideal, not a right (left, respectively) ideal. (See, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baer_ring) Any thoughts?

It sounds like you are correct, and since it doesn't affect the definition, I think it should be changed. Minimalrho (talk) 01:06, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
