Tip of the day...

Using Math

When using math in an article, there are two different types of markup that one can use. It is important to be consistent throughout an article and use the same type of markup. If a formula appears all on the same line, it would be better to use HTML than LaTeX, because L^∞ looks better in line than $L^{\infty }$ does; however it's generally a bad idea to attempt to render $Q(x)={\frac {1}{\sqrt {2\pi }}}\int _{x}^{\infty }e^{-t^{2}/2}dt={\frac {1}{2}}\,\operatorname {erfc} \left({\frac {x}{\sqrt {2}}}\right),\ x\geq {}0$ in HTML.

Deletion discussion about Anders Ekström (historian of ideas)

Hello, Ytterbium174,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Anders Ekström (historian of ideas) should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anders Ekström (historian of ideas) .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

!dave 11:05, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
