"In this page, however, we will assume associativity".
huh? Fields and associative algebras are both associative (in multiplication, which is what we're interested in here, right?)
What's the purpose of this statement? Associativity was never at issue.

- The statement is at the end of a paragraph which gives a different (non-associative) definition. If the statement were omitted, it would be unclear which definition is being used in the rest of the article. --Zundark 08:36 5 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Why do we have separate pages for division ring and division algebra? There isn't much difference.

It seems that 'algebra' here is not always assumed associative.

Examples would be nice!
