[edit] TeX
I've noticed that in at least a couple of math articles you've changed inline non-Tex mathematical notation to TeX. I for one do not regard that as an improvement. TeX looks beautiful when it's "displayed", and also when it's used in the usual way as opposed to the way it's used on Wikipedia. But "inline" as opposed to "displayed" TeX often gets badly misaligned or appears far bigger than the surrounding text. Not everyone agrees, though; see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (mathematics).
