Degenerate bilinear form is unreferenced

Request for an esteemed colleague from WikiProject Mathematics to please review and find a source for Degenerate bilinear form, which has been tagged as "Unreferenced" since August 2008. Cielquiparle (talk) 09:58, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

I see this has been fixed; surely though the right title for this topic is Nondegenerate bilinear form? They're the important ones .... 64.26.99.248 (talk) 18:24, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

I'm guessing there is a stupid Wikipedia reason for this bizarre state of affairs. Tito Omburo (talk) 21:35, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

The reason is probably history rather than policy. IAC, rather than renaming the article it might be better to merge it into Bilinear form with {{R to section}} in the redirects. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 11:39, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

That sounds reasonable. XOR'easter (talk) 00:26, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Uncited statements at 0#Computer science

A few statements at 0#Computer science need support from manuals, textbooks, and/or histories. I know math people aren't necessarily computer people, but it seemed a good idea to raise the signal here too. XOR'easter (talk) 02:42, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Doi will be added to the Theory and Applications of Categories

SVG rendering bug is fixed

I'm happy to announce that MediaWiki has finally updated their SVG rendering library to a less obsolete version, and as a result plenty of bugs were fixed, including the one that sparked a discussion here back in March. Tercer (talk) 20:23, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the good news! —David Eppstein (talk) 20:31, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
