lower case g for local acceleration due to gravity

[edit]

Please stop reverting. Refer to the linked article Gravity of Earth in that entry on the disambiguation page: This quantity is sometimes referred to informally as little g (in contrast, the gravitational constant G is referred to as big G).

This is consistent with the usage in Standard gravity and Gravitational constant.

From Standard gravity: The symbol ɡ should not be confused with G, the gravitational constant. olderwiser 17:10, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are correct, the other pages you referenced are wrong as well. Capital G is the correct form for acceleration due to gravity, lower case g refers to standard gravity or particular gravitational value. The one statement confusing G and g that is in error
