* Multiletter variables are bad idea and should be avoided. If they are more like words (for example acronyms) use roman, otherwise use italic.

* Sub and superscripts that represent quantities should be italic. Otherwise they should be roman. For example <math> V_{\rm max}</math> (max is roman) but <math> V_{n+1}</math> (n is italic)

* Mathematical operators are in roman. Usually this happens automatically. For example <math> \sin\alpha </math> (<nowiki><math> \sin\alpha </math></nowiki>). But some operators will require manually setting. For example <math> \frac{ \mathrm{d} x }{ \mathrm{d} t} </math> (<nowiki><math> \frac{ \mathrm{d} x }{ \mathrm{d} t} </math></nowiki>) and <math> \mathrm{arcsinh}\,\alpha </math> (<nowiki><math> \mathrm{arcsinh}\,\alpha </math></nowiki>).

* Mathematical operators and special functions are in roman. Usually this happens automatically. For example <math> \sin\alpha </math> (<nowiki><math> \sin\alpha </math></nowiki>). But some operators will require manually setting. For example <math> \frac{ \mathrm{d} x }{ \mathrm{d} t} </math> (<nowiki><math> \frac{ \mathrm{d} x }{ \mathrm{d} t} </math></nowiki>) and <math> \mathrm{arcsinh}\,\alpha </math> (<nowiki><math> \mathrm{arcsinh}\,\alpha </math></nowiki>).

* Single lette functions you define are italic. <math> f(x) </math>

* But multi letter named functions are in roman. <math> \mathrm{func}(x) </math>

* Units are in roman and separated from numbers by a space. <math> h = \frac{ E }{ m \times 9.81 \ {\rm m/s^2} } </math> (<nowiki><math> h = \frac{ E }{ m \times 9.81 \ {\rm m/s^2} } </math></nowiki>)
