Talk:Einstein–Cartan theory

Recently added citation of writing of Niccolai, Edoardo

I recommend removal of the citation to a writing of Niccolai, Edoardo (recently added by ), unless it can be supported as reliable and noteworthy.

Please note that there are similar discussions at Template:Slink, Template:Slink, and Template:Slink. There is also discontinued discussion at Template:Slink. —Quantling (talk | contribs) 13:41, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm just trying to let people know that there are some important writings by my professor. That's all. And I do it for the love of science. Maybe you should inquire about the person in question before "triggering" an unfair censorial judgment, which is to the detriment of the knowledge itself.

Thank you very much JeppOne (talk) 11:57, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

There are thousands of articles published annually on this and related topics. Singling out one gives it too much prominence. It needs to be notable in some way. Wikipedia is not a dumping ground for citations.67.198.37.16 (talk) 05:10, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

That said, a quick skim indicates that the following is a high-quality work, and could very well be appropriate for this article:

• https://hal.science/hal-03948127 Spin & Torsion Tensors on Gauge Gravity: a Re-examination of the Einstein–Cartan Spatio-Temporal Theory

I will try to read it in the coming weeks; I have high hopes for it. 67.198.37.16 (talk) 04:03, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Many primary references to work by Nikodem J. Popławski

The article currently has 7/23 references to work by Nikodem J. Popławski. Absent secondary references this is WP:UNDUE.

If there are reviews that cite this work they should be summarized and cited (in addition to key primary refs). If there are not reviews then the work is not notable and should be removed. Johnjbarton (talk) 16:04, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Other section

The "Other" section has two sentences:

• Einstein–Cartan theory seems to allow gravitational shielding and the oscillation of massless neutrinos without violating the equivalence principle. In addition, the Einstein–Cartan theory is also related to geometrodynamics and the vortex theory of the atom.

In my opinion this content is not notable. Most of sources cited are from the late 1990s but have found very few follow up citations. The content is so spare that it has no value for readers. Should we delete this section? Johnjbarton (talk) 18:51, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

@RemotelyInterested I removed your tags in this section as sources are given. Johnjbarton (talk) 18:53, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

About the history

On History of loop quantum gravity, the origin of Ashtekar variables in loop quantum gravity and their connection with Einstein–Cartan theory are mentioned. Wjerome2023 (talk) 09:37, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
