Brownian meander
Hello.

I'm glad to see this new article.

Please notice my recent edits: Where it said
 * Brownian meander $$W^+ = \{ W_t^+, t \in [0,1] \}$$ is a continuous non-homogenous Markov process defined as follows:

I wrote:
 * In the mathematical theory of probability, Brownian meander $$W^+ = \{ W_t^+, t \in [0,1] \}$$ is a continuous non-homogenous Markov process defined as follows:

The initial phrase tells the lay reader who doesn't understand the first sentence what general subject area this is in. In some articles there's no need for that; for example if the article is called mathematical induction or algebraic independence then even those who don't have the prerequisite knowledge to understand the article know that matheamtics is what it is about.

I also set the title phrase in bold at its first appearance. That is considered correct in Wikiepdia articles. See WP:MOS.

I also did some copy-editing of small details:
 * I indented all instances of "displayed" (as opposed to "inline") TeX with a single initial colon. This is presecribed at WP:MOSMATH.
 * In things like
 * $$ P(A|B), \, $$
 * coded as P(A|B), I wrote
 * $$ P(A\mid B),\, $$
 * coded as P(A\mid B). That automatically puts a bit of space before and after the vertical slash.


 * In things like
 * $$ p(y)\,dy $$
 * I added space between p(y) and dy by coding it like this: p(y)\,dy. (I seem to recall that this was in WP:MOSMATH, but I haven't looked for a while.
