I noticed Neven's law via the new articles bot and prod'ed it on the grounds that it's a coinage by one guy a few weeks ago. The prod was declined; maybe someone here has an idea for how to improve it, redirect it, etc. I'd be a "delete" !vote if it were at AfD — a few pop-science stories can't cover up the essential neologism-ness of it — but my Wikipedia time will be too intermittent for the next few weeks for me to manage an AfD discussion myself.

Blas Cabrera Felipe (BCF) is very well known Spaniard for his contribution to physics. Blas Cabrera (BCN, N for Navarro) is a more recent physicist, son of another seemingly important physicist Nicolás Cabrera (NC) but not related to Cabrera Felipe. Both BCF and BCN published under the name of "Blas Cabrera", I suggest to move the more famous BCF to Blas Cabrera namespace and BCN to "Blas Cabrera Navarro" or something else as it is done in Spanish Wikipedia. Also, it would be nice that somebody check the notability of BCN and NC.-- MaoGo ( talk) 15:30, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Likely Wikidata swallowed someone’s mistake. The property’s talk page denotes it as «T3» – seemingly the weak isospin’s main component. On the other hand, example usage currently specifies certain value for neutron, a baryon. Look: for a massive particle, and of these firstly for weak-interacting SM’s elementary particles, T3 is technically uncertain because changes irregularly under P-symmetry. Namely, ±½ values are assigned for the active chirality (left for particles, right for anti), whereas for the sterile chirality (right for particles, left for anti) T3 = 0. Neutron is composed of three (massive) quarks, by the way; it’s I3 (not T3) which is defined for it. Suggestions by particle experts? Incnis Mrsi ( talk) 12:41, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Some recent changes ( example) to this article should probably be reviewed by members of this project. Thank you. Peacock ( talk) 14:04, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
I've been taking intermittent thwacks at improving the page Bogdanov affair, and I think it's actually decent for a treatment of a rather murky topic. It could use more eyes, though (there's probably bad phrasing that I've read too many times and just become acclimated to, et cetera). Also, there's an IP editor who is oddly insistent that the lead shouldn't have links to later sections (despite the Manual of Style), but that's just life in this strange place called Wikipedia.

I don't actually know what the protocol is for marking Drafts as things made up one day, but Draft:Special Theory of Ether qualifies. The sources aren't just primary; they're from viXra and SCIRP. XOR'easter ( talk) 21:20, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
As a heads up, the alerts will now report proposals for mergers and splits, as well as AFC submissions. There's a bit of a backlog, but now we have a way to track it! Headbomb { t · c · p · b} 02:03, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
