This is not a problem with a block displayed formula, and also typically not with inline formulas that exceed the normal line height marginally (for example formulas with subscripts and superscripts). The use of LaTeX in a piped link or in a section heading does not appear in blue in the linked text or the table of content. Moreover, links to ...
Underscored or underlined text. An underscore or underline is a line drawn under a segment of text. In proofreading, underscoring is a convention that says "set this text in italic type", traditionally used on manuscript or typescript as an instruction to the printer. Its use to add emphasis in modern finished documents is generally avoided. [1]
The TeX markup of <math>...</math> uses a serif font to display a formula (whether as SVG or HTML). HTML math expressions should use the {} template so they display in a serif font as well. Doing so will also ensure that the text within a formula will not line-wrap, and that the font size will closely match the surrounding text in any skin.
In no case should the resulting font size of any text drop below 85% of the page's default font size. The HTML <small>...</small> tag has a semantic meaning of fine print or side comments; [2] do not use it for stylistic changes. For use of small text for authority names with binomials, see § Scientific names.
An overline, overscore, or overbar, is a typographical feature of a horizontal line drawn immediately above the text. In old mathematical notation, an overline was called a vinculum, a notation for grouping symbols which is expressed in modern notation by parentheses, though it persists for symbols under a radical sign.
If you use this tag to put a formula in the line with text, put it in the {} template. The {{ math }} template uses HTML , and will size-match a serif font, and will also prevent line-wrap. All templates are sensitive to the = sign, so remember to replace = with {{ = }} in template input, or start the input with 1= .
