This article would definitely benefit from some images. Fredrik Johansson 11:04, 23 August 2007 (CDT)

• Although I am still working on this article (one of the things I want to do is type in explicit expressions), I had not planned any illustrations. I teak my lead from Whittaker and Watson: no diagrams :-) (joke). Do you have any suggestions? In the past I made some 3D-like plots of s, p, d, etc. orbitals (by means of Maple). They looked nice but, in my view, you don't learn anything from it.--Paul Wormer 11:49, 23 August 2007 (CDT)

Illustrations?

As far as I'm concerned this article is finished. If somebody wants to make it more accessible by adding some graphs, please do so. --Paul Wormer 07:33, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

I'm afraid I don't have any graphs to add myself. Those shown here are nice. There's also this image on Wikimedia Commons, which is free. Fredrik Johansson 08:38, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

I uploaded Spher_harm_10.svg‎ and tried to show it at the bottom of the article, but no luck! Can somebody tell me what I do wrong?--Paul Wormer 09:46, 2 September 2007 (CDT)
