Restructuring question to use clearer quoting style and fixing minor issues.

| May 28, 2014 at 15:08 | comment | added | Phil Perry | It's very common in the non-academic world to simply list all known trademarks (R), (TM), (SM), (P), etc. used in a work in a section in the Front Matter: "Mathematica(R) is a registered trademark of Wolfram Corporation" or whatever. That way you are acknowledging their ownership of a mark without having to scatter ® throughout the paper (actually, once is enough). | |
| May 28, 2014 at 15:04 | comment | added | Steve Jessop | Also be aware that not all program names are trademarks, and not all trademarks are registered trademarks. If you want to highlight a trademark that is not registered, you use superscript TM. | |
| May 28, 2014 at 13:57 | comment | added | R.. GitHub STOP HELPING ICE | There is never an obligation to use the ® symbol when mentioning a trademark. Its use is a (rather old-fashioned and out-of-style) means for trademark holders to assert their trademark and emphasize that the word is not a generic term. | |

| May 27, 2014 at 21:23 | comment | added | David Richerby | I don't recall ever having seen a trademark symbol in an academic paper. On the other hand, in my area of theoretical computer science/maths, trademarked terms don't get mentioned very often. Even when people do use Mathematica, they often just say "a computer algebra package". | |
