== Deletion in Atomic Theory ==

I have had to "undo" your deletion. Please do not simply delete referenced content without an explanation -- it appears from this talk that you've been asked previously to refrain from doing that. Thank you.

==Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Scorpion frog sajjad jafari.jpg==
[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=|link=]]
Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Scorpion frog sajjad jafari.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]]. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free|image copyright tag]]; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#F7|section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Di-disputed fair use rationale-notice -->

The article definitely needed curating, but that is not the same as acting as its custodian. The following past edits are particularly questionable:
# your deletions of properly referenced statements,
# your unreferenced original research,
# your additions of off-topic information gleaned from other WP articles.
The innumerable individual changes give the impression of editorial incompetence; the invitation to recommend the article for Good Article status is uncalled for and deluded. I am also unhappy at your deletion of your talk page history, rather than archiving it. 

Rather than bringing the matter up on the Talk page, or inviting Admin comment, I decided to come here first. [[User:Sweetpool50|Sweetpool50]] ([[User talk:Sweetpool50|talk]]) 15:53, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

== Deletion discussion about [[B-bar (Morse code)]] ==

Hello, Kurzon

Welcome to Wikipedia!  I edit here too, under the username [[User:North8000|North8000]] and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, [[B-bar (Morse code)]], should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/B-bar (Morse code)]]. 

You might like to note that such [[WP:AFD|discussions]] usually run for seven days and are ''not'' ballot-polls. And, [[WP:DISCUSSAFD|our guide]] about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top. 

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>North8000<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. And, don't forget to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> . Thanks!

Please do not remove illustrations of items that are directly referenced in the text. You have done this twice, removing the only illustration of a klappvisor, and more recently the only illustration of a fixed bavier and an unattached plate gorget. Are some images less than ideal? yes, but we are limited by what is available on Wikimedia. In covering a subject with many esoteric terms and little-known physical aspects, relevant coverage in illustrations is a high priority.

==Pro wrestling==
Hi. I have seen your recents edition in the article. First, I think the terms aren't correct. As other user told you, the factual term is staged or scripted. Mock combater, parody... aren't neutral, looks like a anti-pro wrestling article. 

Also, sources. The first section is sourced. Not described as mock combat, but performance art instead. I know, pro wrestling it's several things: its a theatre, it's a scripted fight, a choreogaphy.  But your editions hasn't sources to support your claims. I included the sources and some parts of your editions, I think the current is a good approach. --[[User:HHH Pedrigree|HHH Pedrigree]] ([[User talk:HHH Pedrigree|talk]]) 18:09, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

:{{reply to|HHH Pedrigree}} Uh, is English your first language?  Because your page makes me think you're Spanish.  Mock combat and parody ARE neutral terms.

::Hi. No, English isn't my first language. As I said, User MPJ-DK  told ""mock" is not neutral - staged is factual", which it's true. Most sources call wrestling staged or scripted. Sources in the lead say "performance". Also, Parody has negative connotations. Wikipedia says "is a work which is created to imitate, make fun of or comment on an original work." I prefer "pro wrestlers perform" or "pro wrestlers have characters", which is more neutral. --[[User:HHH Pedrigree|HHH Pedrigree]] ([[User talk:HHH Pedrigree|talk]]) 20:16, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

== Edit summaries ==

Hello Kurzon,

I just had to revert an edit of yours to the article [[The Scorpion and the Frog]] ([[Special:Diff/1013930085|diff]]). You removed "written in Sanskrit" and put quotation marks in a blockquote template. The latter is discouraged by the [[MOS:BLOCKQUOTE|Manual of Style]], and for the former, you didn't provide an edit summary explaining why you removed that text. In future, I recommend mentioning in edit summaries your rationale for removing text or other article material. This will mean you won't get reverted by someone who didn't understand why you did it, as was the case here. Please feel free to edit the page again to re-remove the text with an edit summary explaining your rationale. Thanks, [[User:DesertPipeline|DesertPipeline]] ([[User talk:DesertPipeline|talk]]) 07:23, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

I see you removed the text again without providing an edit summary. Please could you at least explain here? Thank you, [[User:DesertPipeline|DesertPipeline]] ([[User talk:DesertPipeline|talk]]) 12:28, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

== Scorpion + Frog ==

I owe you a longer explanation on why I reverted you recently at this article. I thought you were jumping the gun. We've appealed for input and should wait a reasonable time for comments. If none come within (say) a month, then the next move would be to widen the appeal.

Meanwhile, I've been looking at allied fables. You're right about the possible connection with The Frog and the Turtle. In the 18th century translation of the whole [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=BqIBAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA118&dq=fable+scorpion&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwintJOdz9jzAhWRiVwKHfDnDQwQ6AF6BAgHEAI#v=onepage&q=fable%20scorpion&f=false Pilpay/Bidpai] work (and we're looking principally for English language connections) the context in which the fable is told is concerned with ingratitude for benefits. And Ashliman groups the Bidpai story with [https://sites.pitt.edu/~dash/type0278.html Aesopic analogues]. All three of those cited, however, have a moral suggesting that providential justice is at work, which is very different from the moral drawn from the scorpion and the frog. So even though there is an admitted connection between these stories, the conclusion drawn from them can be different.

As I said before, I was impressed by the fact that no less than three editors since 2010 have seen an additional connection with the older Aramaic fable of the scorpion leaving the ferrying frog unharmed. I've now found [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=6KgnBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA442&dq=fable+scorpion&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi9qL-60tjzAhVvQUEAHXk3COo4HhDoAXoECAYQAg#v=onepage&q=fable%20scorpion&f=false a Jewish source] that does make a connection with the Aesopic story. Unfortunately, the Google Books pages break off just where the author is about to make the connection plainer. If you could find a copy of the book and look it up, that would be useful. The story is obviously concerned with Divine justice, which allows a suspension of natural law (the scorpion abstains from stinging the frog) when a higher aim (the punishment of an unjust man) is in view. 

What we have, then, is a series of disconnections. Aesop/Bidpai have a scorpion and different creatures and are concerned with punishment of ingratitude. Their stories are bracketed on either side with reinterpretations of a frog and scorpion partnership coloured by very different cultures. Orson Welles tells the story cynically, in a 20th century atheistic context; Middle Eastern Jews, with a mindset (held in common with Islam) that nothing happens outside the Divine purpose, use the story in the context of what Ashliman calls "unnatural partnerships".

Since we now have a source that sees some connection between the stories (Welles' apart), I hope you'll agree that it would be a good idea to keep mention of the Jewish story in the article but not add comment (or my new source) while we wait to see if we can get any further comment.

:I have a hunch that if you searched some database of old folk tales, you will find a lot of hits for frogs and scorpions, and the fables will be of all kinds of things.

==Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Eldar Guardian WH40K.jpg==
[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=|link=]]
Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Eldar Guardian WH40K.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]]. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free|image copyright tag]]; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#F7|section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Di-disputed fair use rationale-notice -->

== Superman Copyright ==

Hi!

Wanted to chat a bit more about that copyright. United States works enter copyright every year on January 1, and they do not enter on a rolling basis through the year. You're right that they expire on January 1 and not on December 31.

In 2023, works from 1927 entered the public domain following a full 95 years worth of time since that year. Since Superman was first introduced in a work published in 1938, he will have to wait a full 95 years after 1938 to become public domain in the United States. Using the difference of 96 between 1927 and 2023, this means that Superman would enter the public domain in 2034 in the United States. I didn't want to just revert your edit, and I appreciate abiding by the citation. 

With all that said, what are your thoughts on changing the copyright date to January 1, 2034 with a note for American copyright? [[User:MonkeyBBGB|MonkeyBBGB]] ([[User talk:MonkeyBBGB|talk]]) 18:44, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|30px|link=]] You currently appear to be engaged in an [[WP:Edit warring|edit war]]&#32; according to the reverts you have made on [[:Professional wrestling]]. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to [[Wikipedia:Consensus#In talk pages|collaborate]] with others, to avoid editing [[WP:Disruptive editing|disruptively]], and to [[WP:Consensus|try to reach a consensus]], rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:
# '''Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;'''
# '''Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.'''
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's [[Help:Talk pages|talk page]] to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an [[WP:Noticeboards|appropriate noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]].

== English version ==

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello. In a recent edit&nbsp;to the page [[:Warhammer 40,000]], you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English|respect national varieties of English]] in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use [[British English]]. For something related to the United States in the same way, use [[American English]]. For something related to another [[List of countries and territories where English is an official language|English-speaking country]], such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the ''first'' author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on [[User talk:Canterbury Tail|my talk page]] or visit the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help desk]].

== alpha particle scattering from electrons and the number of electrons in hydrogen. ==

Hi. I was reading in A. Pais ''Inward Bound'' about Bohr's first work in Rutherford's work and I realized these three paragraphs (on page 195) related to various discussions we have had. Perhaps you will be interested.

The first paragraph describes [[Charles Galton Darwin]]'s theory calculations using Rutherford's nucleus and electrons distributed uniformly throughout the atomic volume. He says the result allows the number of electrons per atom (n) can be deduced from absorption of alpha particles with distance, given a known atomic radius. From Geiger/Marsden data he concludes that n is between 1 and 1/2 times the atomic weight. Note that this is a theory for [[inelastic scattering]], so the model is different from elastic scattering.
* Darwin, C.G. (1912) A theory of the absorption and scattering of the a-rays. Phil. Mag. (6), 23, 901
The second paragraph in Pais describes Bohr's alternative to Darwin's work, which includes the effect of electron binding. Bohr's model is similar to a model Thomson developed for beta rays, but Thomson viewed alpha particles as atom-sized and thus did not apply his beta ray model to alpha particles. Bohr shows his approach gives better agreement than Darwin's.
* N.Bohr Dr. phil. (1913) II. On the theory of the decrease of velocity of moving electrified particles on passing through matter , The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, 25:145, 10-3
The third paragraph in Pais highlights a sentence in Bohr's paper:
{{quote|"If we adopt Rutherford's conception of the constitution of atoms, we see that the experiments on absorption of a-rays very strongly suggest, that a hydrogen atom contains only one electron outside the positively charged nucleus."}}
This then is the point at which hydrogen is known to have one electron. 

I'm unsure where/if this fits into articles so I'll just leave here ;-) [[User:Johnjbarton|Johnjbarton]] ([[User talk:Johnjbarton|talk]]) 00:44, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

== [[Chili pepper]] is in Vancouver name format ==

Hi, thanks for your efforts to tidy up this article. The name formats have become tangled, and it seems you didn't see my recent edit comment on the matter. I note that for whatever reason, it diverges from most species and biology articles in using Vancouver format for its lists of authors' names. This uses |vauthors=Doe JC, Smith RS instead of |author1=Doe, Joe C. |author2=Smith, Richard S. Obviously we shouldn't mix formats, and equally we are required by policy not to change citation format without wide consensus and good reason. Personally I'm no fan of Vancouver but there's no doubt that it's the established style here. If you want to change it, then make a case for last, first on the talk page, post it on the relevant WikiProjects, and it'll be discussed. Otherwise, we have to stay with Vancouver. All the best, [[User:Chiswick Chap|Chiswick Chap]] ([[User talk:Chiswick Chap|talk]]) 11:53, 31 January 2025 (UTC)

:I'm afraid I'm completely nonplussed by your continued editing with removal of Vancouver format after my post above here. What are you thinking? You must have seen this on your talk page, and the brightly-coloured warning at the top of your screen notifying you of the message. We simply can't proceed with continued editing that is at once against written Wikipedia policy, against consensus on the article, and ignoring explicit discussion on your talk page. Please stop the de-Vancouver-isation, leaving the article alone until we have reached agreement on how to proceed.

== Rutherford scattering experiments w/o the math ==

I don't expect you will agree, but I am hoping you will at least try to have a open mind about the split of [[Rutherford scattering experiments]].  I think changing the math content to qualitative physics would significantly improve the article for the readers that come to read about the experiments and history. Such readers will stop at the first equation. On the other hand, readers keen on the math will be able to dig in to the math content in [[Coulomb scattering]]. 

To give you a sense of how the second half of the [[Rutherford scattering experiments]] might look I created a quick draft in my [[User:Johnjbarton/sandbox/Rutherford]]. This still needs work but I wanted to plant the idea that the result could be good. None of the math content is going to be deleted, just moved into a context where it can be related to more than history. [[User:Johnjbarton|Johnjbarton]] ([[User talk:Johnjbarton|talk]]) 20:10, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

:I will wait until I see what you do with the Coulomb scattering article before I give my opinion. [[User:Kurzon|Kurzon]] ([[User talk:Kurzon#top|talk]]) 20:19, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
:I think your problem is that you don't know how to think like a student. You think like a professor. You havemultiple PhDs, you're a retired engineer. I am in a way a student and I was curious about the maths and I imagine other students will want this too, and they will go looking for it in the Rutherford scattering article. And like all professors I expect you to get annoyed when students go paddling another way instead of the neat path you had I mind for them.
