- 17:1717:17, 29 May 2024 diff hist −100 Mathematics education in the United States Undid revision 1226281046 by Nerd271 (talk) – that's fine, but this is a rare niche subtopic which does not need to be called out in such a list. current Tag: Undo
- 17:0717:07, 29 May 2024 diff hist −100 Mathematics education in the United States →Secondary school: the "rule of sarrus" is not like anything else in these lists. it's WP:UNDUE weight to put it here Tag: Reverted
- 17:0517:05, 29 May 2024 diff hist −35 Mathematics education in the United States →Secondary school: reorder slightly. it makes more sense to put vectors with analytic geometry rather than trigonometry
- 17:0217:02, 29 May 2024 diff hist −24 m Mathematics education in the United States →Secondary school: grammar
- 17:0017:00, 29 May 2024 diff hist +304 Mathematics education in the United States →Secondary school: skimmed several textbooks. vectors are definitely typically a separate chapter from trigonometry. clarify the text here, and elaborate about the topics included in typical trigonometry sections
- 16:4016:40, 29 May 2024 diff hist +16 m Mathematics education in the United States →Secondary school: try to be more precise
- 16:3916:39, 29 May 2024 diff hist +19 Mathematics education in the United States it is unhelpful to list "analytic trigonometry" and "trigonometry" separately, since the list below doesn't distinguish these terms and "analytic trigonometry" is a term with a wide and vague range of definitions in the literature (including at school level). Also try to clarify the sentence about what is included in 'trigonometry'. It would be good to do a broader survey of textbooks, as I don't think the claim that vectors are treated as part of trigonometry is broadly true

- 15:0915:09, 29 May 2024 diff hist −23 Mathematics education in the United States →Secondary school: it's not clear what "analytic trigonometry" means in this unsourced list – maybe interpretation of sine/cosine as coordinates of points on a circle? – but "trigonometry" and "analytic trigonometry" are not obviously distinct and can be safely merged here Tag: Reverted

- 14:2214:22, 29 May 2024 diff hist −46 Seiffert's spiral this footnote banner is unhelpful. this article is obviously a stub, for which there is so little content that it can be assumed to come from one of the listed references, and claims are not hard to investigate. if someone wants to expand it they should likewise expand the references current
