Legendre polynomials
Legendre polynomials are not orthonormal, because the L2 norm goes not give 1, see the corresponding Wikipedia article on Orthonormality. As the text correctly states, the polynomials are standardized but not (ortho)normalized.

Lagrangian mechanics
replaced invariance with covariance; invariance means something does not change at all, while covariance means that the equations maintain the same formTag: Reverted

Cramér–Rao bound
This is more precise. The likelihood function is the joint probability of observing a sample. Since we take the expectation over the data distribution, we should talk about the likelihood for a single sample here.

Histogram
discuss advantage of histograms over kdes in statistical applications; there are reasons why scientists still use histograms and not switched to kdes

removed unjustified negative statements for which no citations are given, and replaced with statements that reflect the statements in the MLE article
