re: "Don't use Unicode!"[edit]

It's not Unicode, it's HTML entities... they should show up in all browsers, unless I'm mistaken. What's SOP for educating quotes at Wikipedia? Or is SOP that all single and double quotes must remain ugly and stink of unprofessionalism? No offense meant. Also, is there a more convenient forum for discussions of this sort?

Try metawikipedia. Personally, I don't see how uneducated quotes are ugly- it's a matter of taste and convenience. Articles with educated quotes are much harder to edit than those without, and we should leave them that way. If you want to embark on a project to educate Wikipedia's quotes, you'd better first consult with others. --Faradn


I think you were mistaken to change "[0,1)" to "(0,1)" in Cantor's diagonal argument. [0,1), with one square bracket on the left and one round bracket on the right, is a half-open interval; (0,1), with two round brackets, is an open interval. The former makes sense in context; the latter does not. Michael Hardy 02:51, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Sorry! I'm not really a math guru- it just seemed like a typo to me. Thanks for clearing that up. --Faradn 03:14, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Thanks[edit]

For the Capitalization :) that I unintentionally lost when reverting. --Humus sapiens 08:14, 29 Feb 2004 (UTC)
