I think tactical use of the POV marking only weakens your case. Escalating disputes here only leads in the end to page protection (not by me - I am forbidden to do this since I'm involved in editing - so this is only for your information). Charles Matthews 14:12, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)

(William M. Connolley 19:46, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)) I wonder if you'd care to look at Talk:Big_Bang#Cons_of_energy_/_JimJast where cons of energy in GR has come up. I (naively?) assumed that GR conserves energy as a given; JJ asserts that it is a commonplace that it isn't. I'm confused.
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "((DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual))" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
OR
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "((DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual))" with "((MultiLicensePD))". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Hello!
I noticed your new article on Soros Fund Management. Howvere, I am not sure whether
Surely you must be aware that that claim is not universally held view; it is arguably not a neutral position.
My purpose in writing this note isn't to change your belief. That edit would be fine if you were submitting something to LGF; but this isn't LGF. WP is a cooperative venture with people who may not share many beliefs in politics, economics, sociology etc.
I would hope that in writing something on WP you display some collegiality and cooperative spirit. If your are going to say a company strategy is based on lies, you should at least prove your point or qualify it.CSTAR

Hi,
I'm not totally hostile to adding Chirac's photo with Hussein, but I'm worried about the POV aspect and the impression that it may give. The photo dates from 1976; the events we're describing date from 2002; and Chirac probably hasn't met Hussein for 15+ years now. David.Monniaux 18:54, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Hi there! I just wanted to say I enjoyed your comments over on the Double-slit experiment Talk page. I am still unsure how Afshar's results would invalidate the Many Worlds Interpretation, however, even if his results were correct. I will have to do some reading and thinking on that.

Chill out! Anda diviértete un poco! Com'n what does Al Gore giving a speech on the coldest day of the year or ever prove? You're a scientist! And Newton? OK so maybe he hated Hookes' guts and maybe he wanted to be sarcastic and use the word giant? But why are you going around and putting this stuff in? Go to Inman square and get yourself a nice dinner. Try Jay's. Who knows, we may end up sitting next to each other? C'est moi avec mon épouse, la chinoise :) CSTAR 03:29, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Hello!
I didn't "accuse" you of anything! If you carefully look at what I actually wrote, I didn't say the claim that Al Gore gave a speech on the coldest day of the year wasn't true! I specifically asked you "what does it prove?". My point was that the fact is an anecdote, and if you're going to put it in the article, you should say something to specifically say it is irony.
And the comment "why are you going around and putting this stuff in?" was meant specifically to engage you in a conversation about finding a better way to formulate these claims for insertion in WP articles. For instance, it is well known that Hooke and Newton had an academic rivalry, that Hooke was ugly and of small stature and that Newton intensely disliked Hooke. As a result, it has often been suggested (and I concede credibly so) that Newton's remarks about "sitting on shoulders of giants" in his letter to Hooke may have been ironic, as you point out. But the key word is "may". And even if there was an element of irony in that remark, it is also reasonable to surmise that Newton also intended to say and convey to future generations the more straightforward meaning of the text.
OK?

In extensively editing this article, I may have deleted some edits you made to it, particularly in the section "Implications of violation of Bell's inequality".

Please reinsert somewhere if you still think it is necessary. I am still working on the article getting rid of the anti-QM POV.CSTAR 17:54, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
(William M. Connolley 10:29, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)) Hi. I first moved down, then removed entirly, the MM05 bit you added. Sorry, but the reason for removal was that this isn't even published yet. Rutherford, Mann et al have a piece rubbishing M&M in press (available from http://www.realclimate.org/index.php?p=10) but I haven't put that into wiki as I don't think its right to put in unpublished stuff. I don't think wiki is for breaking news, in the science area.
Hi! I noticed you are a scientist in the field of physics. I'd like to inform you that there is a discussion over at Votes for Deletion that might interest you. It concerns an article on Hagen Kleinert, a German colleague of yours. Apparently some people have a big problem with the fact that it seems like he started the article himself. While I can understand and respect that opinion, personally, I think that isn't that big a deal, since the article contains verifiable facts only, and to me (who know very little about the field) he seems like a really notable scholar. However, in the discussion, some people have also taken to claiming that having written 8 books and "only" 350+ articles in peer-reviewed publications is not notable, since writing is what professors are supposed to do, and that "a lot of mediocre academics have acheived this and more". Regardless of how you feel about accepting autobiographies in Wikipedia, I think your thoughts on the "notability threshold" for professors could be very valuable for both this and future VfD debates. On the other hand, if you should feel this is not a debate you want to get into, I would very much understand that. / Alarm 19:25, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Hi. You're the only other physicist I'm aware of who has been posting on climate articles, so I thought I might be able to draw your attention to greenhouse effect (see the recent history) and the corresponding discussion Talk:Greenhouse effect#Origin of Name (or in fact, 90% of the talk page which is on the same topic). In short summary, WMC seems to continually reinserting material stating that convection always provides a cooling action, and that suppression of convection produces a warming effect, which of course horribly violates the laws of thermodynamics. In reality, of course, heating requires that work be done, namely by a radiative imbalance. I would appreciate if you could take a look and give some assistance. — Cortonin | Talk 18:21, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hi Lumidek,
some time ago William M Connolley asked you to look at something in the wikipedia article on gravity and you were able to help. I have the same sort of question now. It is about section 2.2 of the current article. "How is there conservation of energy if gravity is not categorized as a force."
In the case of an electrostatic field it is possible to define a potential. Increasing the distance r between two test-charges requires a force, hence it is possible to assign a potential energy to every distance r between the two test-charges. The magnitude of the force of attraction is proportional to the first derivative of the function that describes the potential between the two test-particles as a function of their relative distance.
In the case of electrostatic attraction the force (described by Coulomb's Law) is always present, whether the two test-charges are moving towards each other or not. In the case of gravity it is less clear. Increasing the distance r between two test-masses requires a force, so in that way a function for a potential energy can be defined. On the other hand, when two test-masses are free-falling towards each other then they are in inertial motion, so there is no force.
Section 2.2 of the gravity article attempts to show that there is conservation, just not conservation of the sum of the newtonian expressions of kinetic and potential energy. Gravity alters the rate of time, so the newtonian expression for kinetic energy doesn't hold, that is clear. But it seems to me that the current section 2.2 doesn't succeed in clarifying what it intends to clarify. I wrote about these issues on William's Talk page: internal link: Repositories of potential energy --Cleon Teunissen 11:32, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I would be very surprised if Afshar faked his results, that is gave an incorrect report on what he actually did and what he actually observed, either intentionally or because he used or read his instruments incorrectly. In fact as far as I can tell the criticisms levelled against him don't concern reproducibility of the results. If indeed this were true then it should be prominently noted. Regardless of whether or not someone is a crank, I have been very careful to avoid using that term becuase it is rarely helpful, and in Afshar's case, this fact would be harder to justify, since he does have a faculty appointment somewhere . I think it is better to stick to the widely known facts of the case. See Talk:Bell's theorem. This incident by the way motivated Crackpot index. Regards--CSTAR 16:38, 25 May 2005 (UTC)

May I abuse you once more for judging the mainstream-ness of research in QFT (relates to an article in the German Wikipedia, not surfaced here, yet).
The subject is the the so called "Finite QFT" of Günter Scharf (Zürich) and co-workers. See:
They seem to be cited mostly be themselves (but get the occasional cite from Bert Schroer or Fredenhagen, so it would be fine with me). So what? I assume the German article claiming, that it is a superior way of doing QED is somewhat skewed? And as a serious contender for a theory of quantum gravity?
Pjacobi 17:25, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi Lumidek. Can you look at the article fine-tuning that you created a while back? There's stuff on there about intelligent design and the anthropic principle and things. Is that right? Doesn't seem right to me, maybe someone just assumed because of the "fine-tuned" in fine-tuned universe? Someone is even suggesting merging it to fine-tuned universe. --Ben 10:02, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

I see that you admit above to being Luboš Motl. herefore it my be interestg to you that you are mntioned by today Nature in a news piece titled "Theorists snap over string pieces" (Nature, 2006, 443, 491).
Not Even Wrong was published in June and The Trouble with Physics came out in September; shortly after they appeared on the Amazon books website, string theorist Luboš Motl of Harvard University posted reviews furiously entitled “Bitter emotions and obsolete understanding of high-energy physics” and “Another postmodern diatribe against modern physics and scientific method”. As Nature went to press, the reviews had been removed. Few in the community are, at least publicly, as vitriolic as Motl.
Your comment would be interesting to me because - contrary to what you seem to believe about me (two words added later to avoid misunderstanding) - I believe string theory is a much better candidate for theory of everything than loop quantum gravity. Therefore I would like to hear your opinion on the books before I decide whether to order any of them. Regards, Friendly Neighbour 08:26, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Newspaper - At Wikipedia, you are described as physicist "and" string theorist. Don't people believe that one category embodies the other? Gross - That's a nonsense. In the first part of my career I was with the particle physics and the nuclear physics. After, as many others, I began working at strings. It's all the same thing.
If you insist, Lumidek, I can send you the whole page of the newspaper. Don't doubt it, because it's Brazil's most important newspaper. If you really think that line shouldn't be in the article, at least don't say it was a Brazilian joke, because it wasn't. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.147.91.34 (talk) 14:58, 17 January 2007 (UTC).

Hello! If you have a moment, I wonder if you could take a look at bogoliubov transformation? There is a note in the article which mentions that the transformed ground state is different from the original ground state, but what does its form look like? --HappyCamper 00:58, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey Lumidek. I noticed you created the article on Jim Gates and identified him as an African American physicist. Was there any reason to mention his race (maybe first to write thesis on supersymmetry, or an advocate of diversity in science)? If so I could add that in, or I'm just going to take the race reference out. Jussen 02:36, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

A ((prod)) template has been added to the article Matti Pitkänen (physicist), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the ((dated prod))
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with ((db-author)). Deiz talk 16:07, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi Lumidek: In the Black hole electron article, the electron Compton wavelength is shown to be either equal to or very close to 4 pi (3 pi hG/c) exponent 1/4. Do you see any flaw in the logic sequence leading to this specific value? -- DonJStevens (talk) 17:32, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi Lumidek: I have your reply. Thank you for taking a look at this.--DonJStevens (talk) 22:30, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi Lumidek: I would like to request your help to present the following equation so that readers will know the intended units. L1/L2 = L2/L3 Where: L1 = 2 pi (Planck length) (3/2)exp 1/2
L2 = 1/2 (electron Compton wavelength) = Le/2
L3 = photon wavelength that has energy value h/(2 pi) squared
L3 = (2 pi) squared, times light velocity, times one second
L3 = 1.183533185x10 exp 10 meters
L1 = (L2)exp 2,divided by (L3)
L1 = 1.243518403x10 exp -34 meter
Planck length = (L1/2 pi) (2/3) exp 1/2 = 1.615946x10 exp -35 meters
Planck length = (hG/2 pi c cubed) exp 1/2
With the G value 6.6717456x10 exp -11, the Planck length is 1.615946x10 exp -35 and the following equations will be correct:
3Gm/c squared = (Le/4 pi) (Le/2L3) squared
electron mass = (c squared/3G) (Le/4 pi) (Le/2L3) squared
I would appreciate your help but I will understand if you would prefer not to be involved with this.--DonJStevens (talk) 22:09, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Arthur C. Clarke Diving School, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Arthur C. Clarke Diving School is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Arthur C. Clarke Diving School, please affix the template ((hangon)) to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

A tag has been placed on Wolfram Alpha 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 web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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 web content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding ((hangon))
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ╟─TreasuryTag►contribs─╢ 09:20, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Hello Lumidek! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 4 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 1,637 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the ((unreferencedBLP)) tag. Here is the list:

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Gottwald100.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Hi Luboš. I've noticed your recent addition to the article. I know that Zeman and Fischer are considered favorites of the election, however, many people reading the article here on en-wiki don't know that and it is important to provide reliable reference backing up your claim. Please, don't forget to cite your sources. Thanks for your understanding. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 09:48, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
Hello. I see we have a few old images that you took for which we presumed the license. Wikimedia no longer allows presumed licenses (see Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Template:GFDL-presumed). Could you please verify that you are OK with the license ((GFDL-with-disclaimers))
and ((cc-by-sa-3.0-migrated-with-disclaimers))
for all the images which you uploaded but didn't tag on October 22, 2004, or earlier? If you aren't OK with those licenses, we certainly could choose another, easier one.
Specifically, I'm looking at File:Nima Arkani-Hamed at Harvard.jpg and File:Nathan Seiberg at Harvard.jpg but I know there are other ones too.
Thanks. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 14:22, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
OK cool. I will mark the following images:
Thanks so much for your time (and for the photographs!) Magog the Ogre (t • c) 14:47, 23 October 2013 (UTC)

You can find a full listing of the JTWC best track files going back to 1945 on their website from this link. All winds are listed in knots (always to the nearest value of 5), the standard for tropical cyclone measurements. Within the article, the previous highest are listed according to Dr. Jeff Masters who utilized these files himself in reference #24. Haiyan's peak intensity according to the JTWC was 170 knots, which converts to 315 km/h or 195 mph (when rounded to the nearest 5). Cyclonebiskit (talk) 08:01, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi Lumidek! I found on a photo of yours(?) Commons. Could you please check if you released the image with a GFDL license? We have a lot of trouble with old transfer from en-wiki, there's often half the information missing. Could you let me know on my Commons talk page here? Thanks a bunch for your time! --Hedwig in Washington (TALK) 02:12, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Comenius20.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:17, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the ((prod blp/dated)) tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that I proposed a file you uploaded for deletion per WP:PROD. The file is File:Klaus-harvard-2005-small.jpg which I think is a picture of Václav Klaus (let me know if I'm mistaken). I'm sure the file was highly useful at the time you uploaded it over a decade ago, but now it's not being used and Commons has over a hundred higher res photos of the guy. You know the drill: if you'd like to contest the deletion, just remove the tag. If you have questions or concerns I'm happy to talk about it. Happy editing! Ajpolino (talk) 04:04, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Nude weather reports 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, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. SunCrow (talk) 04:35, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

It's in my sandbox and as a professional, you may have something so say. I wanted to summarize the great job that User:D.H and others have done about the history of SR; I hope it's complementary to the timeline of gravitational physics and relativity and to timeline of luminiferous aether. I've already contacted about it some historians of Physics like Norton, Janssen, Stachel, Brown, Renn, Gutfreund and Wróblewski; and I'm still confused about some pieces of the story like Kaufmann's experiments, Wigner rotation and Thomas precession.
