Aug 17, 2019 at 21:28 comment added Trevor Wilson I see, thanks! On further thought, it seems like $\kappa$ Woodin and $\Sigma_3$-reflecting implies $\kappa$ weakly Shelah: given $f:\kappa\to\kappa$, use Woodinness to get some $\alpha < \kappa$ that is $\mathord{<}\kappa$-$f$-strong. Then the desired conclusion (on existence of $j$) holds for cofinally many $\bar{\kappa} < \kappa$ in place of $\kappa$. Formulating this in terms of extenders, $\Sigma_3$-reflection implies the desired conclusion holds for cofinally many $\bar{\kappa} \in \operatorname{Ord}$ in place of $\kappa$, and therefore for $\kappa$ itself (since $f$ is increasing.)

Aug 17, 2019 at 18:36 comment added Asaf Karagila Oh. Shame. It would have been nice to see all very large cardinals rendered inconsistent on MathOverflow... :-P
Aug 17, 2019 at 18:35 comment added Gabe Goldberg You're right, it was a typo, I meant limits of weakly Shelahs
Aug 17, 2019 at 18:31 comment added Asaf Karagila Wait, how is this possible? I thought Shelah cardinals are measurable. No? That means that every Shelah cardinal is a measurable weakly Shelah, so it is the limit of Shelah cardinals. Therefore the ordinals are not well-founded...
