Hi Devon, Note that x y & u v were/are in the key in the original page.
Given that there are now entries for u. and v. (the extended operand versions of u and v) in the body of NuVoc, it seems sensible to co-locate them with x, y, m, n, u and v? Having all eight entries in the key might be a bit squashed.
