Some Wikipedia conventions

[edit]

Hello. Some of your edits prompt these tips:

  • Articles should begin with complete sentences, not dictionary-style definitions.
  • The title word or title phrase should be highlighted at its first appearance, like this.
  • Your link to alternating sign matrix conjecture used too many capital letters. When I checked, that article did not exist, but if it had, your extra capitals would have prevented the link from working until a redirect was created.
  • "Displayed" TeX should be indented, thus:
Note that I used two colons to create this indentation, whereas usually one would be enough. Two were needed in this case because the paragraph began with a "bullet", and so it was already indented.
  • Don't use too many capitals in section headings. "External links" with a lower-case "l" is correct; a capital "L" would be wrong; see Wikipedia:Manual of Style. Similarly "Further reading", with a lower-case "r".

Happy editing. Michael Hardy 17:44, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)</math>
