When statements only apply to that variant the adjective is appropriate.) Tag: Undo

- diffhist Mercator projection 21:29 +44 AndyAnderson talk contribs (Undid revision 1225793784 by Strebe (talk) The entire point of using TM is to map north-south regions, so that phrase must remain to explain its use in general. “national grid system” doesn’t link to anything to explain what that means, whereas the US state plane system is a good example of such. “UTM” may be familiar to some but is not descriptive. Complications can be left to the linked article.) Tag: Undo
- diffhist Mercator projection 19:25 −740 Strebe talk contribs (Eliminate overlinking and blog-like sources. Defer to article about oblique projection, where real world uses on the ellipsoid are discussed.)

- diffhist Mercator projection 16:27 +7 AndyAnderson talk contribs (Undid revision 1225767681 by Jacobolus (talk) Understanding of readers is *paramount* in Wikipedia articles. The accompanying image uses the term "Standard", not "normal", so using the latter term is *confusing* and must be avoided except in brief reference. Jacobus asserts the latter is proper technical term, but there is no consistency, see e.g. https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-642-79824-5_15) Tags: Undo Reverted
- diffhist Mercator projection 15:49 −7 Jacobolus talk contribs (revert 3 changes. this "standard mercator projection" terminology is nonstandard and ambiguous. the correct cartography jargon phrase is "Mercator projection in normal aspect". If you like feel free to fix the image) Tags: Undo Reverted
- diffhist Mercator projection 15:26 0 AndyAnderson talk contribs (→Properties: Move the paragraph describing rhumb lines to just after the one describing conformal nature.) Tag: Reverted
- diffhist Mercator projection 15:25 +21 AndyAnderson talk contribs (→Properties: Update paragraph describing issues at the poles to specifically refer to standard Mercator, and point “other applications” reference to the Uses section that describes oblique and transverse Mercator.) Tag: Reverted
- diffhist Mercator projection 15:00 −14 AndyAnderson talk contribs (→Properties: “Standard” is used as an adjective in the adjacent image and therefore must also be referred to in the accompanying text. Drop reference to Mercator in a sentence that refers more generally to normal cylindrical projections (resulting from combining paragraphs).) Tag: Reverted
- diffhist m Mercator projection 14:51 0 AndyAnderson talk contribs (→Oblique Mercator: Improve language by keeping geographic location references together rather than being split by an image reference that refers to both of them.)

- diffhist Mercator projection 19:55 +3 Kencf0618 talk contribs (→Oblique Mercator: Ovoidal, more properly, although you can't "see" the bigger end (unless you can see infinity).)
- diffhist Mercator projection 19:50 0 24.116.116.148 talk (→Oblique Mercator: Caption condensation and nuance; roundabout w/linkage, so people are clear it's a traffic circle massively distorted.)
- diffhist Mercator projection 18:50 −3 AndyAnderson talk contribs (→Properties: A term *must* be used to distinguish the different types of cylindrical orientations from each other, as they are all introduced in this section. “Standard” is used in the accompanying graphic, but I see in the linked page on cylindrical projections that they are called “normal”, so there is a conflict in terminology here (especially since “normal” can also mean “perpendicular”). I’ll use “standard” here for consistency, although that can also be confused with “standard lines”.)
- diffhist Mercator projection 18:24 −9 Jacobolus talk contribs (→Properties: "parallel cylindrical projection" is not a standard term. it's clear from context that this means projections in "normal aspect".)

- diffhist Mercator projection 15:31 +174 AndyAnderson talk contribs (→Oblique Mercator: Corrected description of image: the axis is clearly *south* of the Arc, or its top would not appear in the end of the projection to the north of Paris; the distortion is not exponential, it is *logarithmic* ~ –Log[φ + π/2]; no need to say “axis of projection” because the axis is in reference to "oblique Mercator projection" several words before. It is important to describe the distortion to help interpret the image.)
