Algebra pages
Hello, and welcome to Wikibooks! Do you need the Algebra pages listed on Special:Lonelypages? Mark any pages you don't need for deletion by typing somewhere on the page. By the way, if you move OLPC - Algebra 1 in Simple English to Algebra 1 in Simple English (via the "move" link at the top of each page), you will be able to create an automatic backlink to the title page. Best of luck on your project, hagindaz 20:23, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Naming of algebra pages
I wouldn't put "OLPC" in the title, since that's not the only use for the works, and it's not relevant to the content. As hagindaz notes above, a move to "Algebra 1 in Simple English" would be helpful. Sj 14:08, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate your point. It's not the only use for the book, but it is a very important reason why people might want to contribute to the project who normally don't contribute to Wikibooks (like myself).

I am primarily soliciting input from high school math teachers who will specifically be wanting to contribute to the textbook being designed for the One Laptop Per Child student population, so it really needs to be in the title.--HSTutorials 19:26, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

LaTeX Math in mediawiki
Hello, I noticed you said to write exponents in the form of 5^6.

There is actually a way to do that. You do $$ 5^6 $$

When editing. For example, the above does this: $$5^6$$.

That way, it works inside the wikibook and in the print book later on.
