adbrite looks much more on the up and up and doesn't have pop-ups. [http://www.adbrite.com] Why google why! - this looks to be a suitable replacement and better than the last one.

I don't know who to contact - I suppose you're the most appropriate person I know! I found a bug already. It seems like the E-mail attribute is not designed to cope with URLs, just e-mail addresses (unless it's designed that way, of course). I just choose not to give a direct e-mail address [for obvious reasons] and still allow people to contact me with a web form).

:Nathan, I believe you're refering to the Personal Infobox element for "Email", which I do believe is set up to "point" to a traditional person@domainname.com type of address.  There are some e-mail contact form widgets, though, that other users are embedding.  That might be of interest to you.

Math Biz

Hi Greg,

Do you think there's any chance you'll be updating the math parser, whatever it is, any time soon? I'd like to keep MyWikiBiz as my main work wiki and I've been trying to fix all the problems with MathJax or whatever it is, but it just doesn't look doable anymore. Here's how one of my math sections looks on three different wikis:

  • MyWikiBiz
http://mywikibiz.com/Directory:Jon_Awbrey/Differential_Logic_and_Dynamic_Systems_2.0#Terminological_Interlude
  • InterSciWiki
http://intersci.ss.uci.edu/wiki/index.php/Differential_Logic_and_Dynamic_Systems_2.0#Terminological_Interlude
  • Wikiversity
https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/User:JonAwbrey/Sandbox

Aside from the overall readability issues, there's problems with underlining and failure to distinguish serif and sans serif characters that I use for a critical math distinction.

Frankly, there is zero chance that I would personally update the math parser, because I'm not technically inclined. The last time we had a major overhaul to the platform was in 2014. That took an outside contractor to execute, and the cost was around $900. I am just guessing that a math parser update would potentially set off a domino effect of requiring an update to the Mediawiki root platform, and thus I could be "in" for another $1,000-ish cost. Your most popular page, Logical graph, got 62 hits from around the globe in the past month. For 2 hits a day, I really can't justify the potential budget outlay.
