A solution to a common problem (New)
You may have faced the situation when the math formulas in the body of wikinotes appears extraordinary small (compared to usual font for math formulas). Sometimes this small font helps and sometimes it hurts! One solution to this problem is simply inserting the expression "\,\!" somewhere in the formula. For example you should write <mth>\,\!p_{x,y}</math> instead of <mht>p_{x,y}</math>.
\, is used to make a 3/8 quad space in Latex and \! produces a negative space of -3/8 quad. So they cancel each other and fortunately solve the problem mentioned above as well.
Examples
According to scientists, the Sun is pretty big.<ref>E. Miller, The Sun, (New York: Academic Press, 2005), 23-5.</ref> The Moon, however, is not so big.<ref>R. Smith, "Size of the Moon", Scientific American, 46 (April 1978): 44-6.</ref>
