 Notwithstanding that the
 [http://sagemath.org/doc/tutorial/tour_algebra.html tour of algebra and
 calculus] dates from years and years ago in Sage time, someone at the
 [https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pCwvGVwSMxTzT6E2xNdo5fA public
 bug reports] seems to have noticed that in some of the {{{math::}}} markup
 regions there are extra asterisks that aren't necessary.

 A typical example is [http://hg.sagemath.org/sage-
 main/file/9519a7bb2f42/doc/en/tutorial/tour_algebra.rst#l306 here]
 {{{
 .. math::   y(x+h) \approx y(x) + h*f(x,y(x)).
 }}}
 doesn't need the {{{*}}}, or it should have {{{\cdot}}}.

Comment:

 I went ahead and fixed some asterisks which should have been backticks as
 well.  Looks good!
