Defined "tf–idf" in "Career" section. Added double quotes to: "term frequency–inverse document frequency" to prevent the word "term" from being misread. Regularized short dashes to long dashes so redirection is no longer needed to land on the "tf–idf" page. That page's actual location contains a long dash.
