Brief mentions
- In lamenting technology in mobile phones, Ellen Goodman of the Boston Globe mentioned the word "complexification", which they said "can now actually be found in Wikipedia." It's unclear whether they were referring to the Wikipedia article on Complexification, a vector space in mathematics, or the Wiktionary article on complexification, which fits more with the Globe's usage. The article was also syndicated to other newspapers.
