• (teach) Arden's rule could use expansion. There again, French version is more complete.

• (misc) Add the nice proof of Pascal's rule with binomial expansion.

• (research/teach) Alternating finite automaton. French version is much better. Might want to import and complete.

• (teaching) Check vocabulary for code. French: code vs codage; here using en:code for fr:codage; what's the en for fr:code ? "uniquely decodable" still applies to a fr:codage instead of directly to a fr:code, which would be simpler. Need to find refs for usual practices.  Not done

• (teaching) Nicer prefix proof at Kraft's inequality:  Done. Maybe wrangle McMillan later.  Not done

• (misc) Arithmetico-geometric sequence does not cover what I would expect. / Actually, it's covered in Linear difference equation. Nothing to do.  Done

• (misc) Vandermonde's identity#Generalized Vandermonde's identities: added beautiful, more general version of identity.  Done It's obviously correct, but I can't find a reference. Seems that somebody else was looking for a ref and failed: http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1131450/generalized-vandermondes-identity.  Not done

• (misc) Perhaps expand a bit the proof of Nicomachus's theorem.  Done

• (misc) Iverson bracket undefined cases? Proper definition for 'strongly 0'? Reworked.  Done

• (misc) Geometric progression and Geometric series are incredibly stinky messes. Dare I touch them ungloved?  Not done

• (misc) Merged Genetic entropy into Genetic load#genetic_entropy and John C. Sanford.  Done

• (misc) Ant on a rubber rope; Knuth references?  Not done

• (misc) Mean time between failures. General formulae?  Done

• (misc) Bayes' theorem: improve a bit Partly done.

• (misc) Proof_by_contradiction#Relationship_with_other_proof_techniques; improve; added Proof_by_contradiction#rel. Partly done

• (misc) Mean_time_between_failures#MTBF_of_networks_of_components: contributed network formulae  Done.

• (misc) Arithmetico-geometric sequence: improved.  Done.

• See if Pandoc is good at converting LaTeX to wiki syntax. That would make things easier for me.

Turns out, it doesn't handle macros well. My existing documents depend heavily on them. Alternatives? Simple macros work fine.  Done

• BibTeX citations to Wikipedia: follow up on , .  Done Zotero seems to work fine.

• Pandoc + Zotero : Project "LaTeX seed"  Not done

• See if there is really no way to define LaTeX macros across an article; User:Gamall_Wednesday_Ida/sandbox. Seems not, but might ask someone knowledgeable sometime.  Not done

• Useful tool: User:Jmath666/latex2wiki : LaTeX to Wiki converter.
