Origins/History - future section?
A math teacher (blogger) has done some research on the origins of graph paper: http://pballew.blogspot.com/2011/01/notes-on-history-of-graph-paper.html (with citations). Jd2718 (talk) 15:02, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Use of Graph Paper by Young Students
Paper tablets for young school children in some parts of Europe are commonly printed with various graphing grids. Do we have information on how common this is and is there academic research that promotes it? (In the U.S.A. graph paper is reserved for specialized use, such as a specific charting application or some mathematical purpose.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Homebuilding (talk • contribs) 13:51, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
- This is extremely common in Russia. Basically, all school paper is ruled: for text writing in language arts classes with horizontal ruling only, for everything else with quad grid - two squares per centimeter. The lines are faint, so they do not obstruct writing or drawing. So, it is not for specialized use, quite the opposite. Also, usage of loose paper in Russian schools is not common, so the sheets are bound into notebooks. 12- or 18-page notebooks are common for daily class- and homework. They are collected for grading, and then given back to students. Mikus (talk) 23:07, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
Internationalization
"This is often four squares to the inch" is only true in places that use inches. In metric world, it is often squares of 5mm (which would be close to 5 squares to the inch). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.127.237.108 (talk) 21:41, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
- 5 squares to the inch also exist. The squares do not align with a standard ruler though. Mikus (talk) 05:57, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

How many total squares per page?
Simple stupid question that nobody ever seems to answer:
How many total whole squares are on, say, a standard 5x5 or 4x4 ruled piece of graph paper [per side]? Seems like it would be a useful piece of information for someone out there.

Also, it would be nice if it listed the total squares vertically / horizontally. Like, 42 across and 55 down, or whatever the actual numbers are...
