Your comment at Theory of Everything

[edit]

I saw your comment about the "family tree" of theories. The best place for such comments is on the "Talk" page of the article, which you can access via the discussion tab at the top of each page (but here is a direct link to the talk page relevant in this case: Talk:Theory of everything). So I moved your comment there and provided an answer of sorts. Feel free to respond there. PaddyLeahy 18:02, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know, but I had hoped it would be corrected in context. In any case, I posted a reply to your comment. (posted after debate, so impossible to accurately sign)


Speedy deletion of Will Peters

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Will Peters requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- Blake01 20:14, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Naming convention for Baryons

[edit]

Thank you!Thank you!Thank you!Thank you!Thank you!Thank you!

Now it all makes sense!

Headbomb (talk) 04:14, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not at all. They seem confusing and ambiguous, but in actuality few people know the structure of the baryon naming system. If i may comment on your work thus far on the article, i notice that you've added various resonance values for certain heavy baryons, i.e. Sigma0(I=1/2) and Sigma0(I=3/2). I would advise against this, as there are actually a great deal isospin values. It is possible that you may be confusing spin and isospin values, as this chart fails to differentiate between the two (an error i have meant to correct for some time).
I do note your impressive progress, as the last time i viewed this article was several months ago, and i found it both missing information and somewhat disorganized. I would recommend not including higher spin values for the various non-nucleons. For a definitive reference on this matter, there is no better authority than the particle data group. Here is a link to their most recent listings: "click me"; also check the citation on the baryonic nomenclature paragraph for their complete 2006 summary, which discusses in full the complete status of particle physics as of 2006 as well as numerous other topics of interest as of its publication. Wing gundam (talk) 05:14, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've also remarked that the spin values are confusing, and kinda clutter things up. I first added them because the only difference between a proton and a delta was the different spin value, and thus I felt there was a need to distinguish between say a Xi (1/2) and a Xi(3/2) and so I started listing the 1/2 and 3/2 states for each particle. I'll clean it up sometimes this week and I'll let you distinguish between spin and isospin values as you see fit.

Headbomb (talk) 05:27, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, i see. The situation you are describing has somewhat confusing origins, and plagued me for months before i worked it out. It arises from the fact that a baryon has in fact three 'spin-like' numbers to be taken into account: spin, isospin I, and spin parity Jp. Spin can vary between resonances of the same letter group, isospin identifies each letter group (and, thus, by definition cannot vary between constituents), and Jp almost invariably varies between resonances (in integer increments off of the spin, interestingly enough).
protons and neutrons, in ground state, have equal spin and isospin, and so do delta baryons, so it may appear that either of these two are used to differentiate between the two. Lambda and sigma's, however, do not. while they both are available in the fractional spins, they are defined by their integer isospins. However, these numbers are sometimes confused or switched, possibly due to the reader, but the sad truth is that more often than not, due to unreliable material, even that of supposedly reliable and/or highly reputable sources. In such cases, the 1/2 and 3/2 values of spins are noticed for sigma/lambda/other heavy baryons, and assumed to play a fundamental differentiation role as they do with protons and neutrons, and listed as fundamental particles, even though they are in fact energized resonances. Hopefully this will make some sense, and guide you in understanding baryons. Wing gundam (talk) 06:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I might also add that it would be unnecessary to list the spin parity number of baryons in addition to the other two, as i think it's identical to the standard spin in the ground state, which is all the list should be listing (there are hundreds of resonances, both confirmed and hypothesized).

Peer review for the List of baryons

[edit]

Since you already contributed to that page, I'm letting you know that I requested for a Peer Review. If you want to help, that would be peachy. Headbomb (talk · contribs) 21:58, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Maxwell's equations, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use your sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --XonqNopp Tk 11:32, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up, but I already knew it what a bad edit. Naturally it was a mistake. Thats why i reverted it as soon as it was submitted. --Wing gundam (talk) 18:47, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, but don't forget that when you submit an edit, it immediately becomes visible to everyone consulting the article, and even if you revert it it will always be stored in the history, meaning that everyone can see you did such a weird change. If you only want to see, you can use the Show preview button (actually everyone should use this button before submitting something). If you want to test your edits before submitting to everyone, you should better use your sandbox. Try it ;-) --XonqNopp Tk 06:59, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

February 2013

[edit]

Hello, I'm JudgementSummary. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Wholesale deletion of my work on Clockwork Universe (nearly 80%) in one fell swoop is not conducive to the free and accurate exchange of information championed by wikipedia. Please note that some of the topics are still work in progress and would appreciate your input and will try to come to an accomodation but that, in my opinion, wholesale deletion without a chance to respond, is not right. In any event look forward to working with you in a more productive manner thanks... i.e. the wholesale deletions from 00:17, 22 February 2013‎ Wing gundam(talk | contribs)‎ to 21:38, 21 February 2013‎ Wing gundam(talk | contribs)‎ This is especially true as the article was just now allowed to remain on wikipedia after a week-long discussion about whether it should be eliminated entirely... thanks...

You're right, section blanking with out Talk isn't good practice. Since you've responded I'll bring this up in the Talk. But leave the tags. Wing gundam (talk) 08:22, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Clockwork universe. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. I don't mean to sound harsh and really do want feedback but to add 10+ objections, wholesale deletions, notices on each and every section with the barest minimum of reasoning is frustrating. It makes it hard to consider exactly what should be done not to mention hard to make any constructive changes to satisfy you points. Please slow down just a little... How about ONE section at a time of your choosing and please note my comments in talk...thanks...JudgementSummary (talk) 16:01, 22 February 2013 (UTC) Please also note that I have left all your notices of objections intact.

Questions about "Wave function collapse" edit 3 March 2013

[edit]

Wing gundam,

What source did you get this from:

"'Note that in practice, collapse to a single eigenstate is never observed, as it is impossible to build a measurement apparatus with perfect precision. In these cases, the wave function will partially collapse to a superposition of "close" eigenstates, embodying the imprecision of the measurement.

You put it under "The process of collapse". Where did it come from???

Thanks, Chris — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.186.65.110 (talk) 05:35, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I remember my quantum professor telling me this when I asked how a wavefunction could evolve after collapsing to a position eigenstate (i.e. a dirac delta function), since it obviously would no longer be first order differentiable, so the Schrödinger equation can't really act on it. (Concordantly, the Fourier transform/momentum-space wavefunction would be a flat line). Good point though, that's a really common misconception, and it should be sourced. That sentence should also specify that this imprecision is *not* the same as the fundamental "uncertainty" that results from incompatible operators. Lemme dig up the page number from my quantum textbook (Feel free to add yours if you want) —wing gundam 07:04, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Illinois River Energy

[edit]

Hello Wing gundam,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Illinois River Energy for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Sulfurboy (talk) 23:51, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Totally missed the discussion. Ironically, among the majority keep votes, the salient points weren't mentioned: numerical density/molarity is a relatively basal physical dimension, in league with density, energy flow density, resistance, and others; just as lists of orders of magnitude for these physical dimensions quantified by their units of measurement are appropriate for an encyclopedia, so is one for "molar concentration." Several items lacked citations because their values were simple density conversions, but citations for the arithmetic can be found if needed.—wing gundam 10:39, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bright pink

[edit]

I'm trying to do some research on names of colors listed in Wikipedia in various articles about colors, and then included in some less such as List_of_colors:_A–F.

I want to make sure our entries are appropriately and adequately sourced. In some cases, colors have been added in good faith, but with either no sourcing, or an adequate sourcing. Unfortunately, there seem to be situations where another website will pick up information from Wikipedia, and at a subsequent date, an editor may use that site as a source for our entry leading to circular sourcing.

Tracking down exactly what happened is tedious in many cases.

I'm currently looking at the entry for bright pink. I believe you were the first to add it to Wikipedia with this edit on 29 April 2007.

(I will note that the hex value at that time was #FF0080. I do see that the current value is different, so arguably it's not critical to reconstruct the early history, but the editor who changed the hex value hasn't been active in five years, so I thought I would start with you and see if you have anything to add.)

At the time you added the color and the hex value, you included a source. That link is no longer working, but I found a working link close to the date in the Internet archive here. that page does include information on quite a number of colors but I don't see any color names, specifically no mention of bright pink, and I don't see an entry for #FF0080. is it possible I'm missing something?--S Philbrick(Talk) 16:11, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I recall adding it because I had a text listing bright pink as saturated 330°, which is #FF0080 or #FF007F depending on your rounding convention (half up vs. the very uncommon half down); technically the B value is 7F.7F. Many colors do have a preferred coordinate space.
Though "bright pink" isn't mentioned in the Rose (color) article, I had it defined identical to the headline color "rose" (= 330°, 100%, 100%). It seems accurate to say that the "bright pink" I saw and "rose" are synonymous. (And both are apparently distinct from the "rose pink" (= 320°, 60%, 100%) that appears in both articles, which is a 60%-saturated magenta-rose.)
Many websites appear to cite "bright pink" as #FF007F, but this seems to be a reference cycle like you described. —wing gundam 10:17, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Before you spend more time editing Prime-counting function

[edit]

Hi...

There is already a section below "Exact form" that has exact formulas. This section, "Formulas for prime-counting functions", even has an animated graph that shows that pi(x) can be computed using zeros of the zeta function. Also, the "Exact form" section needs better references. In particular, two of the formulas there do not seem to have been proven! Therefore, I suggested on the Talk page Talk:Prime-counting function that the "Exact form" section be deleted or merged into the other section. If you have thoughts about that, please add them to the talk page. While we appreciate your work to improve the article, it may not be a good use of your time to work on the "Exact form" section.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Diatonic scale, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Locrian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
