[edit] Description

This field is for articles which contain general information about mathematics not related to a particular field, including:

structure, methodology, institutions, prizes, and sociology.

Articles which are not field specific because they concern ideas or terminology used throughout mathematics should instead be rated under basics. Most notation is also rated under basics, unless it has a particular cultural significance. Articles assigned to the history field are currently listed together with the general field: for historical articles within other fields, it is preferable to use the historical parameter of the maths rating template.
