Most of what I do at Misplaced Pages is copy editing; I correct grammar, style and usage. My goal in editing is not pedantic correctness, but clarity and readability. My only fluent language is English. I am from the United States, and my editing decisions reflect that — in terms of word-choice, not politics. Having a background in Engineering and Math, I am prepared to work on technical pages. A casual interest in folklore, myth, and religion has led me to watch several of the pages in those areas. If there is an article you would like me to take a look at or a project you would like to collaborate on, please let me know on my talk page.

I keep a weblog called Monday Evening.

An example of math markup

9 x 2 x + 2 6 x x 2 + x 2 {\displaystyle {{9x^{2} \over x+2} \over {6x \over x^{2}+x-2}}}

What's up with this?

Suppose τ d δ 2 / κ {\displaystyle \tau _{d}\simeq \delta ^{2}/\kappa } where κ {\displaystyle \kappa } is the thermal conductivity.

It looks like the first kappa is rendered as an image, while the second is not. Is there a way to make these look alike? I'd prefer them both to look like the first one.
