| I hope you enjoy editing here and being a ]! By the way, please be sure to ] and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the ], add a question to the ] or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! | |||
| == Particles == | |||
| Good work. I see that you and Xerxes have pretty much done the clean up that I thought I would do. I'd begun to remove the totally unnecessary pages on every antiparticle. Thanks for pitching in and especially for redoing the particle template. ] 13:32, July 19, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Crap == | |||
| I don't edit science articles on purpose. It just makes me mad. Come to think of it, almost everything on wikipedia anymore just makes me mad. ] 17:28, July 21, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == particle classification == | |||
| The category "subatomic particles" is catch-all: analogy is to the main data tables in the particle data book (although there is no need to be so inclusive). The categories "fermion" and "boson" I believe are useless categorizations and should be removed. Particles can be in more than one category. | |||
| It's not totally clear to me whether one should go for a lepton/hadron classification or a elementary/composite classification. The 1st has the advantage that it already exists, and although there are particles which may not be either, the spillover can always be acccomodated into "subatomic particles". The 2nd makes more sense within the standard model (or its extensions), and with the article that you are writing/have written. The composite category can easily be subdivided into things like "hadron", "nuclear isotopes" etc. | |||
| I was wondering whether this discussion should be initiated in the wikiproject: particles, but that seems to have been started by some undergrads, and is anyway defunct. If you and one or two others are willing to revive it in order to put this discussion on record, then it may be useful. --] 09:03, July 22, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Black hole electron == | |||
| I just want to assure you that objections are unlikely, at least before we see what you do with it. The person most likely to object is Don, whose original research resulted in the creation of the ] page, and he has been very cooperative. | |||
| I personally want to see what you can do with that page. ''']'''. That page needs it. --] | ] 22:01, 22 July 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Welcome == | |||
| Hi, | |||
| thought I'd extend my welcome as well. The main physics project page is at ] although what you really want to watch (and participate in) is the discussion at ]. Note also that ] is also often highly relevant, and, as mathematics is a somewhat older project on WP, has a lot more activity/participation. Anyway, welcome! If you have questions, concerns, comments, uncertainty, complaints, etc. or find yourself irratated at some person or WP process, or ettiquette, please, don't hestitate to ask me or (better yet) voice them on the project talk pages. ] 22:35, 22 July 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == As of 2005 == | |||
| Inserting "as of" links is - as far as I know - not an "official" Misplaced Pages policy, only a recommendation. Still, it is a systematic way of "currency tracking", and it is useful as such, although I would agree it is much more useful for more obscure pages that are not likely to be updated quickly after the facts change. ] 21:38, July 27, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| P.S. ] article says: "], string theory is unverified." This may also sound silly; if someone managed to prove that string theory is correct (or wrong) - well, to put it mildly, people would notice... ] 22:01, July 27, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| :Precisely. I can't imagine a scenario like: "Bang! String theory is now (dis)proved." Even if such a thing was within reach of today's physics, it would probably take a '''decade''' to decide one way or the other. String theory article going without an update for 10 years? I don't know... :) ] 22:59, July 27, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Kaons == | |||
| Certainly the lifetimes should be attributed only to K-long and K-short. The remainder are errors. Please feel free to correct. ] 06:45, August 7, 2005 (UTC) | |||
