15:5915:59, 14 November 2024 diff hist +1,264 Talk:Exponential function →List of potential sources: a few more current
08:2508:25, 14 November 2024 diff hist +87 Eli Maor it doesn't seem maor still is teaching at LUC (not listed on current faculty page). Maybe someone can figure out if he retired from teaching or got a different academic job. current

16:3516:35, 13 November 2024 diff hist +1 m Squaring the square →Squaring the plane current
16:3416:34, 13 November 2024 diff hist +50 Squaring the square →Squaring the plane: try to clarify a bit. I was slightly confused before and had to go to the reference. feel free to rewrite again if any of this still reads awkwardly
15:5915:59, 13 November 2024 diff hist +17 m Hindu–Arabic numeral system we don't need spelled out dates for citation access/archive dates
07:1807:18, 13 November 2024 diff hist −724 Number line revert changes to the lead – this could probably use copyediting or even more significant rewrite, but these particular changes don't seem like improvements. some parts are ungrammatical, others are awkward, and yet others don't stick to an encyclopedic tone current Tag: Undo

03:0503:05, 13 November 2024 diff hist +33 Talk:Hermitian matrix →General Corrections: split mostly unrelated discussion
03:0403:04, 13 November 2024 diff hist +38 Talk:Hermitian matrix move new comment to the bottom and give it a title – responding to 15-year-old discussions generally just causes confusion

19:4319:43, 12 November 2024 diff hist −272 Mercator projection this reference seems irrelevant. we don't need footnotes here in the lead anyhow current
17:3817:38, 12 November 2024 diff hist +214 Talk:Mathematical object No edit summary

16:3616:36, 12 November 2024 diff hist +4 Duodecimal Undid revision 1256989941 by 98.97.118.207 (talk) "base 12" is a bit confusing and ambiguous, since in base twelve it is written "10" Tag: Undo
16:3516:35, 12 November 2024 diff hist −23 m Geometric mean Undid revision 1256952368 by Alfie66 (talk) this seems redundant. "positive real numbers" was already specified current Tag: Undo
16:2316:23, 12 November 2024 diff hist −1 Gudermannian function Undid revision 1256965617 by 97.129.88.218 (talk) this spelling is correct and intentional, though the other spelling would also be okay current Tag: Undo
05:1505:15, 12 November 2024 diff hist +2 Laurent series Undid revision 1256898629 by ComplexRational (talk) – the problem with this is that the text can get squeezed between the two sides. it's better to let the images go downward. feel free to take out the excessive navbox though – floating top navboxes are not generally worth the space, and are better placed at the bottom of the article current Tag: Undo

20:0620:06, 11 November 2024 diff hist +93 m Talk:Exponential function →Who prefers the current intro?: adopt D.Lazard's proposed way of throwing in "additive identity" and "multiplicative identity", and wikilink 'zero' and 'one', spelling them out to make the click target bigger

08:3708:37, 11 November 2024 diff hist −238 Talk:Exponential function →Who prefers the current intro?: retract this. it's off topic and unnecessarily argumentative

22:2322:23, 9 November 2024 diff hist −4,179 Exponential function Undid revision 1256414753 by TheGameChallenger – This addition is unsourced, seems out of scope for this article, and in a quick literature search I find at least 3–4 different unrelated meanings for "rational exponential functions" and can't find any sources using it in the sense indicated here. current Tag: Undo
