The other day I went through and fixed what actually looked broken to me. Maybe other people have additional opinions. Stepwise Continuous Dysfunction (talk) 17:57, 10 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

The World Destubathon

Hello. Project members are invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is $3338 going into it, with $500 the top prize. There is $500 of prizes going into improving STEM and business-related articles and we want to see a lot of science-related articles destubbed and older stale articles improved. If you are interested in winning some vouchers to help you buy books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for science, sign up if interested.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:43, 31 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

A bit much, yeah? My internal go-to image of locust clouds is even worse materially, though. Remsense ‥  23:09, 1 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
The contest is to expand articles about countries. Not directly related to physics or science. Johnjbarton (talk) 23:51, 1 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Near-extremal black hole

Notice

The article Near-extremal black hole has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Tagged as Unreferenced and unimproved for 15 and 1/2 years. Tagged for Notability concerns for 7 weeks. No mathematical formulas for this concept. No other language has a reliably sourced article from which to translate. WP:OR or at best WP:SYNTH.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the Template:Tlc notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing Template:Tlc will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bearian (talk) 02:41, 20 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

I redirected to Extremal black hole. We can start there if someone wants to build out this topic area. Johnjbarton (talk) 03:13, 20 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Non-Archimedean time

Notice

The article Non-Archimedean time has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced for almost 20 years, this is a thing, but this page is synthesis of several ideas.

Argh! Can we even dignify it by calling it "a thing"? There are also so many utterly different ways to be non-archimedean, making it a hopeless name. Delete delete delete. —Quondum 14:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
No objection to deletion from me. I don't think the page text actually combines unrelated ideas, and this is legitimately one thing that a person could mean by "non-Archimedean time" (that the labels on the time axis don't satisfy the Archimedean property). But only a couple extremely marginal sources seem to have used the words in this way. Stepwise Continuous Dysfunction (talk) 15:49, 20 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
