Welcome to my page! Should you want to leave me a message, please leave it here. You can call me Alma since it's my real name Alma (talk) 10:45, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

You commented that the link to my 'talk page' actually took you to another page. I'm new to the system. Could you please tell me how I can correct it? GilR 01:33, 1 December 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gilbert.Rooke (talkcontribs)

I have edited some other talk pages and when I submitted, the system said that I did not have a page about me. So I added one. Now this time when I exited, it complained that I have two such pages. Help!! GilR 00:21, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!

Unsolved Problems in Physics

edit

Hi Almaionescu,

Thanks for getting involved with editing! You left a message on my talk page, but you did not yet have your own talk page set up where I could reply, and you did not put commentary on the Talk section for the page, which is the preferred procedure. Your message concerned a single edit on the unsolved problems in physics page. Then you reverted a half dozen edits that were all justified with commentary. Please reinstate the reverted edits, or explain why you reverted each one of them.

The one specific unsolved problem that you wrote about on my talk page appeared to have several flaws. My understanding is that the problem you wish to include falls under mathematical physics. I added a question on the Talk page about whether Mathematical Physics should be added to the article, and would welcome your commentary on this question.

Kind regards, Jj1236 (talk) 08:24, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi Jj, great to hear from you and thanks for replying! First thing first, just to clarify, it's not necessary to actually set up my talk page in order to receive messages; the page you are talking about is my user page and it's a totally different story (As proof, I got a message on my talk page Dec 3rd from the Teahouse). You can reply to me by clicking the 'talk' button in my signature, on your talk page. I will however take your input seriously and make my talk page more welcoming. I have already explained 2 days ago why I made the reverts, see above. I wrote to you a short message (Dec 7th) about a single edit to get a communication going; 3 days later I received no reply so I did what I thought it was best and also notified you since I couldn't have known you were going to visit ever again. I am not even sure why do I have to say this since you can see the edit history and dates. The same day I reverted the changes(2 days ago) I also left a message on the page's talk tab - which I am surprised you didn't see by now - stating the reason for which I did all reverts 'Cite or it didn't happen'. My point is the following: lower down the page there is a tab for problems solved in recent decades; some of your edits for deleting content have the comment that the problem was solved. If the problem is solved and you know the solution you should move to 'solved' and provide the solution rather than simply delete the problem. There is a rule for editing or creating (which is to cite reliable sources) and the same should be applied to deleting content because an editor thinks a problem is fixed, especially when there is a special spot for that content on the same page. As mentioned before, if you think a problem is not well stated, you should improve the content rather than just deleting it (see asymptotic confinement) especially since there is no known fix to this date. Not only it is of public interest to understand how where those problems solved, but also your comment if not enough proof they actually were solved and a fix is acknowledged by the scientific community. You don't need to worry about me reverting the changes because deleting is actually really easy compared to putting the information back. Strictly logically, proving that you are right to delete the content falls onto you since the content was already there - see burden of proof. Sorry for the long reply! Now, how shall we proceed?

Hi Alma, Thanks for your thoughtful reply! I responded partially on the Talk page for Unsolved Problems in Physics. I'm busy finishing up grading for the semester, but will return to this as soon as time permits. Jj1236 (talk) 01:49, 14 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Quantum mind–body problem, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Wheeler (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Adoption notice

edit

Hello Alma,

I visited your userpage and sandbox in order to update a template name and so saw your adoption notice. I'm not part of the Adopt-a-user scheme, but am interested in things scientific, mathematical and philosophical and have edited here during 2007–08 and again since January this year. That means you may already be more up-to-date than I, but, in case I happen to be able to help, feel free to leave a message if/when something remains unresolved.
