Description[edit]

List of important pages and categories for this proposed group


List of WikiProjects currently on the talk pages of those articles

Why do you want to start a new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?

The goal of this project is to make its associated articles more comprehensible and better constructed to serve readers with different levels of knowledge.

I believe that this field is particularly challenging for the lay reader. Its newness and the "exotic" nature of many of its experiments and concepts defy easy attempts to understand. Unfortunately, many of the current articles fail to provide enough context and background before presenting the more technical aspects of the subject. These include Observable, Wave function collapse, Superposition, and Uncertainty principle.

This topic deserves a dedicated project. Of the 239 articles of , only about 36 of them concern QM and only about 22 are QM specific. A topic such as EPR paradox is only of mid-importance but would be at least high if not top importance to a QM project.

Support[edit]

Also, specify whether or not you would join the project.

Discussion[edit]

@Headbomb: Is that done via the talk page? I think I agree. Informata ob Iniquitatum (talk) 00:01, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I wonder, can this be in the scope of the new taskforce? Boris Tsirelson (talk) 16:58, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I also wonder, can v:Quantum Mechanics Beyond Textbooks and v:Making sense of quantum mechanics be useful here? Boris Tsirelson (talk) 18:05, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
