The text "<math> g = 2 </math>" is rendered as "g=2-" on wikipedia pages. The minus sign does not appear if the text is changed in any way at all i.e. a work around would be to simply replace the text with "<math>g = 2</math>" which will be rendered as "g=2". Browser: Firefox 2.0.0.3
On what page do you have seen this? Tested under http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Raymond/math and I cannot confirm. I assume it's an old page and this bug a dupe of bug 7367
I noticed the error first on this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomalous_magnetic_dipole_moment and have subsequently got the same error on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sandbox It only appears to happen on the English version of wikipedia. The minus sign didn't appear for me on http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Raymond/math or http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Spielwiese.
This looks to be bug 7367. The affected images/rendering haven't been cleared, it seems. For now, to work around, use an equivalent expression to avoid the cache.

The cached renderings still need to be cleared on Wikimedia servers, don't they? That appears to be a separate issue from bug 7367, which was a software issue.
