The term Lie $2$-groupoid is used in literature in more than one context. Some examples are given below: 1. Gregory Ginot's [paper][1] defines a Lie $2$-groupoid to be a double Lie groupoid in the sense of the [paper][2] satisfying certain conditions. 2. Rajan Amit Mehta and Xiang Tang's [paper][3] says that "The simplicial approach to $n$-groupoids goesback to Duskin in the discrete case, and the smooth analogue appeared in Andre Henriques [paper][4]. They define Lie $2$-groupoid to be a simplicial manifold $X=(X_k)$ with some condition on the horn maps. 3. Matial del Hoyo and Davide Stefani's [paper][5] defines a Lie $2$-groupoid to be a Lie $2$-category and a $2$-category satisfying certain conditions. 4. n-lab [page][6] on Lie $2$-groupoid says "a Lie 2-groupoid is a 2-truncated $\infty$-Lie groupoid". No further discussion is given there. Clicking the link $\infty$-Lie groupoid takes you to the [page][7] which do not contain much details. Questions : 1. Are these notions genuinely different notions introduced for different purposes or are all these same candidate wearing different outfit? 2. Are there other notions of Lie $2$-groupoids in literature?
