Jul 21, 2011 at 19:31 comment added Georges Elencwajg Update . I've just checked Ravi's notes: he has been using the suggested terminology for ages! On the one hand I feel silly about my comment above and on the other I'm happy that these wonderful notes will contribute to the elimination of the confusion alluded to above.
Jul 20, 2011 at 20:28 comment added Georges Elencwajg Dear Ravi,I have noticed that much confusion here and on similar questions is caused by the ambiguity of the adverb "locally" in "locally blah", which can mean either that you can cover your scheme by opens on which you have "blah", or more weakly that stalks are "blah". Since you are writing a book which, if there is any justice, should become a standard, you might introduce a terminology which would eradicate these misunderstandings. I think Matt's and Daniel's distinction between "Zariski locally blah" [or just "locally blah"] and "stalk-blah" [or "stalkwise-blah"] is quite satisfactory.
