the word "where" is NOT the beginning of a new sentence; it's part of the same sentence that was already underway. I've seen this weird usage only in Wikipedia, in which a period follows the equation, then a capital initial W is used in "where". Are there people who think it should be done that way, or is that some weird sort of absent-mindedness somehow induced by Wikipedia?
WP:MOSMATH and WP:MOS were repeatedly ignored in formatting and style in these sorts of matters in this article as I found it. Michael Hardy (talk) 19:27, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
