- 01:0801:08, 29 April 2024 diff hist +106 Meridian (astronomy) Technical corrections: 1) A unique meridian plane is undefined for all points on the axis (not just the poles), 2) A given meridian plane defines two (not one) geographical meridians. current
27 April 2024
- 23:2323:23, 27 April 2024 diff hist −6 Orbital elements Change object to body in 3 places for consistency. current
- 23:0223:02, 27 April 2024 diff hist +84 Orbital elements Reword to make it clear that the reference body (the primary) is also required to establish the reference direction and the reference frame.
- 16:1816:18, 27 April 2024 diff hist +21 Orbital elements Add link to "focus".
- 16:1316:13, 27 April 2024 diff hist +75 Orbital elements Reword semi-major axis definition and the diagram description for clarity and consistency with respect to the Keplerian premise that a non-inertial frame with the primary at one focus is being used.
- 03:0903:09, 27 April 2024 diff hist +107 Ellipse Clarify definitions of radius of apoapsis and periapsis (similar to the Orbital eccentricity article). current
26 April 2024
- 23:5523:55, 26 April 2024 diff hist +202 Apsis Add definitions for r_ap and r_per. These are especially needed because they could easily be assumed to be the apoapsis and periapsis distances (the distance between the two bodies) instead of the distance to the primary focus. current
- 23:3023:30, 26 April 2024 diff hist 0 Apsis The nearest approach is at G, not F, and the red line is between G and H, not F and H (how was this missed for 16 years?).
- 16:4216:42, 26 April 2024 diff hist +25 Axial precession Add Apsidal precession to the See Also list. current
23 April 2024

13 April 2024
- 21:5621:56, 13 April 2024 diff hist +52 User:Obtuse Wombat/sandbox Make S and G be math symbols. current
- 20:1720:17, 13 April 2024 diff hist +10 User:Obtuse Wombat/sandbox Use sfrac to separate S and G in upper left cell
- 20:1020:10, 13 April 2024 diff hist +582 N User:Obtuse Wombat/sandbox Test to add a section on Cayley tables for Group Action.

2 April 2024
- 04:1304:13, 2 April 2024 diff hist +26 Affine plane Use LaTeX html markup to improve the display of F^2. current
- 04:1104:11, 2 April 2024 diff hist +20 Affine plane Use LaTeX html markup to improve the display of F^2. Use consistent punctuation.

- 16:4516:45, 29 March 2024 diff hist 0 Deformation mechanism Match capitalization so the section link works.
- 16:3816:38, 29 March 2024 diff hist +133 Deformation mechanism Handle links uniformly
- 01:1901:19, 29 March 2024 diff hist +62 Affine geometry Add link to Pappus's hexagon theorem. current

28 March 2024
- 20:5420:54, 28 March 2024 diff hist +1 Affine geometry Tweak diagram to use the same names for the points as are used in the text.
27 March 2024

25 March 2024
- 23:0123:01, 25 March 2024 diff hist 0 Function space Also, don't switch the role's of V and X to avoid confusion. current
- 22:3122:31, 25 March 2024 diff hist −9 Function space Move introduction of vector space V to the paragraph where it is used instead of having it in an earlier paragraph where it is not used (but which confusingly discusses an unnamed vector space which is not V).
- 16:5316:53, 25 March 2024 diff hist +65 Smartville Block Identify which area is the Smartville Complex and reference the citation. current
24 March 2024
- 19:4419:44, 24 March 2024 diff hist +43 Incongruent melting Clarify that this is a partial melt being discussed.
- 18:2518:25, 24 March 2024 diff hist +2 Partial melting Correction (a pressure increase acts against the temperature increase, not with it).
- 15:3915:39, 24 March 2024 diff hist +4 Axiom of choice Add link to explain no-signaling principle.
23 March 2024

21 March 2024
- 02:2402:24, 21 March 2024 diff hist −21 Nevadan orogeny Correction: Middle -> Late. The referenced citation calls it Late Jurassic (which is consistent with the 155 Ma date) and Britannica agrees. current

19 March 2024

18 February 2024
- 02:5102:51, 18 February 2024 diff hist +19 Inversive geometry Link to the specific concept being discussed here (orthogonal circles) instead of the more general concept of orthogonality.
- 01:4401:44, 18 February 2024 diff hist +136 Inversive geometry Reword for correctness and clarity (the original statement wasn't true for points outside the circle and the vice versa was ambiguous).
