SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps researchers audit and clarify mathematical notation in research documents to meet high publication standards, reducing ambiguity and enhancing readability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Notation Audit: Detects inconsistent or non-standard symbols within LaTeX/Markdown documents, especially in extensive derivations or papers.
  • Notation Cleanup: Replaces or flags symbols violating the conventions, such as Greek for non-parameters or compound ratios used infrequently.
  • Use Case: For a large econ paper, ensure all variables follow the Greek vs. Latin conventions and that ratios appear only after sufficient use, facilitating peer review and presentation.

Quick Start

Invoke the notation-clean skill on your LaTeX file to automatically find and fix notation inconsistencies and improve clarity.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit mathematical notation in a LaTeX document for econometrics standards?

Auditing mathematical notation in LaTeX involves detecting inconsistent or non-standard symbols and replacing them to ensure clarity and adherence to econometrics publication standards, focusing on Greek-Latin conventions, reserved symbols, and ratio rules.

What are common LaTeX notation inconsistencies in econometrics papers?

Common LaTeX notation inconsistencies in econometrics papers include using Greek letters for non-parameters, violating reserved symbol conventions, and using compound ratios infrequently. Cleaning up these issues reduces ambiguity and enhances document readability for peer review.

Can I clean up markdown mathematical notation alongside LaTeX?

Yes, you can clean up markdown mathematical notation alongside LaTeX. The audit and correction process targets both LaTeX and markdown documents to ensure mathematical notation consistency, clarity, and adherence to econometrics publication standards across your research files.

What is the best way to ensure Greek and Latin letter conventions in research derivations?

The best way to ensure Greek and Latin letter conventions in research derivations is to audit your notation to verify that variables follow standard econometrics rules, replacing or flagging symbols that violate Greek-Latin conventions to facilitate peer review.

Does notation cleanup require any specific LaTeX packages or dependencies?

No, notation cleanup does not require any specific LaTeX packages or dependencies. The audit and correction process works directly on your LaTeX and markdown files to find and fix notation inconsistencies without needing external dependencies.

When should I run a notation audit on my econometrics paper?

You should run a notation audit on your econometrics paper when preparing for peer review or presentation, especially after writing extensive derivations, to ensure all variables follow Greek vs. Latin conventions and ratios appear only after sufficient use.
