:::::::: Toggling flanking space now proves sufficient to toggle formula visibility in OSX Chrome and Safari, but it looks as if some of Gerard's other spacing edits can also suppress visibility in the same contexts. In short, lost formula visibility can more consistently be restored by simply reverting the contents of the math tags to their state on the last date before the TOC spacing edits were undertaken.

::::::::: I don't understand what you mean by "looks like". &nbsp; It either does or doesn't. &nbsp; Could you be more specific what those contexts are before you lay blame on "other spacing edits"? &nbsp; I don't understand what TOC spacing has to do with this. &nbsp; I've been adding whitespace before the TOC for over a year and a half now. &nbsp; In a recent change, both whitespace and the use of a bigger font via &nbsp; <big><nowiki> <big> </nowiki></big> &nbsp; were reverted. &nbsp; It can't be symptomatic that ''both'' would be causing the problem(s). &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 17:55, 16 September 2016 (UTC)
 
:::::::::: It does. Visibility is restored in most cases by simply deleting the flanking spaces which you introduced, but in other cases this does not prove sufficient. It does, however, prove sufficient to revert the context of the Math tags to the state they were in before you undertook the edits. I don't know how many other tasks are affected – I just noticed the same problem with Binomial Coefficients, but it's certainly possible that a trail of formulae have been losing their visibility to some users for over a year now. I have been aware of the patchy visibility, and had a sense that invisibility was a growing problem, but I hadn't previously taken the time to pin it down.
