A few comments
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia.

You'll notice I did a moderately large number of small edits to the article you recently created. In particular, you shouldn't capitalize an initial letter merely because it's in a section heading; see Manual of Style in this regard. Also, TeX in section headings fails to appear in the article's table of contents, so I got rid of that. I, and some others, prefer to avoid TeX in an "inline" setting in Wikipedia, since it often aligns badly with the text around it, sometimes being far to large or too high or low, or otherwise fitting badly. TeX in "displayed" settings doesn't have such problems (details vary with browsers). (But if you put a period or comma after it OUTSIDE of the "math" tags, that punctuation sometimes appears as the first character on the NEXT LINE; it aligns well if you put it INSIDE the "math" tags.) In particular, if you look at WP:MOSMATH you see some standards for non-TeX notation, largely making it match TeX style as closely as possible (e.g. italicize variables but not digits and not parentheses, etc.). All this may sound like a bit much, but you quickly absorb it and then can do it without thinking about it. Michael Hardy (talk) 02:24, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
