Galerkin Stuff
It being a summary of articles in need of attention regarding a number of approximation methods for differential equations.


 * Method of mean weighted residuals, poorly written.
 * Weak formulation, way too technical.
 * Finite element method, good article, but likely lacks links to other articles. E.g. the word "Galerkin" does not appear until "discontinous Galerkin".
 * Galerkin method, not bad, lacks links probably. For example, "The Galerkin method of weighted residuals, the most common method of calculating the global stiffness matrix in the finite element method" links to Method of mean weighted residuals and Finite element method, but the reverse does not hold.
 * Rayleigh-Ritz method, too specialized, not too well written.
 * Petrov–Galerkin method, not completely correct, although it did point me in the direction of Reddy's book. Also, it does not belong to any category. A very recent article, it turns out.
