User talk:Wwoods/LaTeX proofing guidelines

A couple of thoughts: in the examples given, I think that when something is omitted by the proofer they should leave some kind of mark. Hence "$$ x^2+y^2" for the $\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$, "$$ f(x)dx" for the integral, etc. I think the reason for $$ing the partial derivative needs explanation: is it the \partial, or is it the complicated fraction, or both?

I think "Proofread the text, and as much of the math as is covered by the normal DP proofing guidelines" might benefit from a slightly bigger example, such as (taken from Spherical Trigonometry, 115.png):

OCR: X, for cotr2{l-£cos(s-c)}, and I^for cotr3{l-kcos(s-b)}. actually proofed under guidelines v1.x: X_1 for $$, and Y_1 for $$. What I think should have been proofed: X_1 for cot r_2{1-k cos(s-c)}, and Y_1 for cot r_3{1-k cos(s-b)}.
