== Standard model ==

On "Beyond the standard model":

The term "etc." in the intro is unnecessary, as there are no other situations where the theories break down. Besides, no "etc." should appear in an encyclopedia.

If the introduction starts with "deficiencies", it should continue with "deficiencies", not switch to "problems".

In physics, a "theory" is a correct description of nature. Thus "candidate theory" is better (best would be "candidate description") for unproven ideas.

I guess we have different ideas on what quality of wording is. I started twice to improve this article, which is full of false statements and really bad explanations, and twice the changes were reverted. I wish you all the best work for improving this really low-quality article. I will stop doing it.

You can see how I improved the others articles I worked on. And of course, you can revert all my edits there as well.

== Thank You! ==

== Ann. of Math. → Ann. Math. ==

Hi. I see that you're going through a bunch of articles and switching Ann. of Math. to Ann. Math., but according to mathscinet, the former is the correct abbreviation (it's certainly the abbreviation I've always seen). What reason do you have for these changes? ] (]) 20:21, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

:Because '']'' is the proper abbreviation? Like ''Ann. New York Acad. Sci. '' is the abbreviation for the '']'', and not ''Ann. of New York Acad. Sci.'', or ''Ann. Ulster'' is the abbreviation of '']'' and not ''Ann. of Ulster'' (or ''Ann. Bot.'' for '']''). It's certainly the first time I hear of keeping the "of" in an abbreviated title. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 20:28, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

::But it's not the proper abbreviation if it's not the abbreviation that everyone in the field uses. Additionally, you can check out the website of the ] for the . Even papers in the Annals of Mathematics use the abbreviation Ann. of Math. in their references. Could you please revert all of your changes? Thanks. ] (]) 20:37, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
::*''Ann. Math'' is the ISO abbreviation, however, which is the one that we've been using all over the WikiProject Academic Journals. Like Headbomb, I've never seen the "of" being kept in an abbreviation. Of course, some fields have different abbreviation styles (US law reviews, for example, which use a very different referencing system and quite idiosyncratic abbreviations according to the )). In such cases I generally list the ISO abbreviation in the infobox and the alternative abbreviation in the text. Something like that could perhaps also be done here? --] (]) 14:42, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

== Cite doi template ==

Hi, I just see that you replaced a "cite doi" template added by Casliber from the ] article. As I use these templates quite regularly myself, I wonder about the reason behind it, so that I can modify my editing if needed. (Like the piped links a while ago, which I now use much more selectively than before). Thanks. --] (]) 14:25, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

::I utterly ''loathe'' the cite doi templates. Consider two articles, with two different ways to cite articles, both using {{tl|cite doi}}. The first uses "Smith, J. (2010)", while the other uses "Smith J (Jan 2010)." One editor tweaks the cite doi template, bringing it in line with the convention for his article, which breaks the other articles it's used on. They make articles hell to maintain (not to mention vandalism gets much harder to detect). <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 14:33, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
::*I agree with the vandalism part, I don't watchlist those things either. I do see advantages, though: if there is an error in a reference, just one edit can take care of all occurrences. But you're right about the different citation styles... Too bad WP never has been able to agree on a single citation style. I guess in future I'll still use the "cite doi" template to ''generate'' a citation, but then copy it directly into the article as you suggest. --] (]) 14:46, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

:::Or you could simply use {{tl|cite journal |doi = foobar}} to do so, saving yourself the copying part. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 14:53, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

== Elsevier BIOBASE ==

I have the correct name for this database already. See this link:. I don't think the move and speedy deletion is correct at this time. Thanks. ---- ] (]) 21:51, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

::Well, where is the description for the CABS database? It looks like Elsevier combined the two into one database. ---- ] (]) 22:09, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

== JSTOR url substitution ==

Hi Headbomb. Just a comment about this . As far as I can see the jstor parameter is not supported for ''cite article'', which actually (confusingly, in my view) redirects to ''cite news''. Thus your edit has had the effect of losing the url from the reference. I've changed the template to ''cite journal'' so all is now well in this case, but you may want to watch out for this issue in your travels. Otherwise, congratulations on the great work! -- ] (]) 15:09, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

:Weird, I thought cite article redirect to cite journal. Anyway thanks for the heads up. Maybe I'll update {{tl|cite article}} to handle the identifiers. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 16:33, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

== Paleontographica Americana ==

The article ] describes the academic journal ''Paleontographica Americana'' so it seems to me that the category Paleontology journals is appropriate for this article. You deleted the category. Please explain to me why this category is not appropriate. --] (]) 15:02, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

:Yes, but the PRI is not a paleontology journal, it's a paleontology organization. ''Bulletins of American Paleontology'', ''Paleontographica Americana'', ''American Paleontologist'' are, so these are the one categorized in ]. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 16:27, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

== References ==

Headbomb, what on Earth is wrong with a reference to the web of science (and note that I don't put the URL in any more, you're right about that)? We have problems enough as it is to source most journal articles. In addition, even though you may not be inclined to put such a reference in articles, I really fail to see why you would take the effort to take it out if someone else puts it in. As for "the", I have yet to hear somebody say "I saw this in Journal Citation Reports", only "I saw this in THE Journal Citation Reports". that's because of the "reports", I guess. You're right, of course, that nobody would say "the Physics Today", but that is a very different title. --] (]) 17:52, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

:Well for me it's the other way around. I never heard anyone say "the Journal Citation Reports", although I supposed because of the "reports" it's grammatically correct (but Jesus does it sound wrong to me). As for a reference to WoS, it's useless clutter. Who would ask "Do you have a reference for the 2010 IF?" after reading "''JCR'' reports the 2010 IF to be...". If something ''must'' be added, then it should be a proper reference to JCR, such as
:*{{cite journal | title = Rank in Category 'Chemistry': ''Journal of the American Chemical Society'' |year=2011 | journal = ]/Science |publisher = ] |page=p. xx |doi=10.xxxx/xxxxxxxx}}
:or however one would cite the actual thing. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 18:18, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
:*A reference like that cannot be given. JCR is a website, has no doi, and no pagination. I have seen people insert the URL they copy from their browsers (same for WoS), but the will only work within a particular session and within a particular institution. In articles on completely different subjects, it is still completely normal to insert a reference even after saying that something cam from "Magazine of Foo" or "Journal of Foo". Even if it is not online. I really don't see your point. If something is wrong with a reference, fix it, don't just delete it. --] (]) 18:23, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
:::My point is that saying you found the IF in "Web of Science"is about useful as saying you found it on Google, and certainly no more useful than saying "JCR reports the IF to be X". What's the reference? JCR! You just said it! <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 18:26, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
:::Apparently the proper way to cite is {{citation |year=2011 |chapter=Journal Ranked by Impact: Acoustics |title=2010 ] |publisher=] |edition=Science}}. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">] {] / ] / ] / ]}</span> 18:40, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
:::*That's a helpful suggestion. I have adapted this (see ]). Thanks. As for the "the", I still think you're wrong (and so does my US-born wife). Perhaps you should ask some native-English speaker somewhere (don(t know whether there is a special noticeboard for grammar questions). --] (]) 09:03, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
::::* ]. In general, unless you are referring to an item, articles are not used with most non-geographical proper nouns and "Journal Citation Reports" is a proper noun. It does not matter that the last word is "Reports", same way as "Black" in "John V. Black" would not be an adjective. So "I saw this in Journal Citation Reports." unless "I saw this in the Journal Citation Reports that is lying on my table." —&nbsp;<small>&nbsp;]&nbsp;&nbsp;▎]</small> 09:50, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
::::*So you would say: "I read that in ]" and not "I read that in the ]"? To me, that sounds very weird. --] (]) 09:59, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
:::::*As I said, that's the usage with ''most'' non-geographical proper nouns. Unfortunately, common usage often contradicts grammar rules, no matter if they sound weird or not. My guess is that since many popular newspapers (The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, etc.) include "The" in their names it has become common to prefix "The" to other publications as well. Would you say "I read the War and Peace." —&nbsp;<small>&nbsp;]&nbsp;&nbsp;▎]</small> 10:47, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
::::::Some other proper nouns: "I'm a member of ]", "of ]", or non-geographical "I'm a member of ]"? Of course I wouldn't say "I read the War and Peace", but in the previous examples I definitely would insert a "the". That's why I think the rule you cite must a bit more complex than that. --] (]) 13:49, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
:::::::APA and IBANGS are not geographical proper nouns, if that's what you meant; "geographical" refers to mountains, lakes, structures, etc. and article usage is very convoluted then. For the rest of the cases, including APA and IBANGS, you wouldn't ordinarily use articles. I don't really see a difference between "I'm an employee of National Rail", "I'm an employee of Charlie's Pancakes", and "I'm an employee of American Psychiatric Association". Why do you treat organization names differently? —&nbsp;<small>&nbsp;]&nbsp;&nbsp;▎]</small> 14:20, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

Enabling Citation bot for List of Glagolitic inscriptions (16th century)

Hello! The only problem is that it capitalises foreign titles and institutions incorrectly, which results in a loss of information and in some cases ambiguity (i.e. "Prilozi za poznavanje Broda" > "Prilozi za Poznavanje Broda" could leads the reader to search for a nonexistant publication called "Poznavanje Broda"). If you can fix this, there will be no further issues. Ivan (talk) 07:28, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand how 'Prilozi za Poznavanje Broda' could be misread/misinterpreted as 'Poznavanje Broda' here... Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 07:39, 26 November 2024 (UTC)
Also if the issue is Croatian capitalization, just set |language=hr and that should leave things alone for capitalization purposes. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 07:42, 26 November 2024 (UTC)
