Fermat–Catalan conjecture and abc conjecture

Does the Fermat–Catalan conjecture follow from the abc conjecture? The Fermat–Catalan conjecture says so, but an editor took that out. The abc conjecture article also says it, with a reference that I can't check. The editor has taken it out of the Fermat–Catalan conjecture article again. What is correct?

A better place to pose this question would beWT:WPM. --2601:142:3:F83A:8985:D0DD:B024:F94C (talk) 11:48, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

• The editor in question appears to be a trouble maker – see his edits here https://en.luquay.com/w/index.php?title=Van_der_Waerden_number&action=history . Loraof (talk) 14:22, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Six edits over nine months is a low level of trouble-making, even if they are mostly unproductive. --2601:142:3:F83A:9D73:4BE:2A07:E50A (talk) 15:04, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
