Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Conversion of math from Latex to HTML
[edit]Please stop blanket converting math from Latex to HTML. This is not an improvement. If you don't like the default appearance of Latex formulas, go into your Preferences and set the appearance for Math to "MathML". It's on the Appearance tab. Once you change that setting, Latex formulas render more like HTML ones, except with better spacing and intelligent control of typography.
I reverted most, but not all, of your math conversions. Generally more complex formulas are best represented in Latex. Anything complex enough to be put on its own line is usually best done in Latex. Certainly if the equation is already in Latex replacing it with HTML is actively harmful. I left your conversions of chemical and nuclear reactions; the HTML format with templates seems better suited to those. I left conversions of simple formulas and numbers, for which HTML is more appropriate.
Be careful about italics in equations. In proper math typography, only variables appear in italics, not symbols (like "=") or subscripts that are not themselves variables (like "eff" in Teff). One of the advantages of Latex is that it handles many of the subtle typographical details for you, so you can focus on the math. Latex markup is also often more easily readable in the edit window than HTML.--Srleffler (talk) 02:03, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
