I did a bit of cleanup, it still needs some help however. I'm not too familiar with the entire family history. It's also unclear as to how Ford (From the Ford-Warshall alg) relates to him. fintler 14:04, 18 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Why is he in category Apocalypticists? The text does not cite any reason. HannsEwald (talk) 01:00, 27 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

German and Latin names

If we're going to mention his names, as we currently do in the lede, it would be nice to cite a source that "Jakob" is because it's German (I assume this is why, but didn't check), and also list his Latin name (since he often published in Latin), which might be la:Iacobus Bernoullius.
