A solution to a common problem

You may have faced the situation when the math formulas in the body of wikinotes appear in a smaller size compared to the usual font of math formulas in wiki format. One solution to this problem is to simply inserting the expression "\,\!" somewhere in the formula. For example you should write <mth>\,\!p_{x,y}</math> instead of <maht>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.
