  • But, I noticed in Wikipedia that they are using MathJax as SVG. Whenever I copy text of that SVG I can copy "MathJax" (Maybe, Latex. The formatting little bit looks like Latex).

  • Look what I got after copying.

  • (I added br tag while pasting it here). They had put Latex code in alt text. So, could you try code for SVG once? (If you are free)
  • Here's the list what Wikipedia uses : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Rendering_math
  • You can use MathJax, Latex, MathML (whatever you like to use) in Wikipedia. Everything converts to SVG. And, you can select that SVG. Even, you can copy alt text of that SVG. Like, you can do for my above images.
