[edit] Simplify
I think this article has too much stuff about the Standard Model in it. The other article can be consulted for the details. The Background section can/should probably be cut down to a third of its present size, or less. - dcljr (talk) 04:07, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
Ohwilleke 00:39, 30 July 2005 (UTC) I didn't cut that much, but I did do a significant edit to trim it down. Yershov's Preon Theory & Bilson-Thompson & LQG & mass prediction
"Yershov Properties of space can be used for explanation of some patterns of nature. For example, topology of space might be responsible for the enigmatic spectrum of masses of quarks and leptons, which so far has not been explained. Here we consider a topological structure discovered in 1882 by F.C.Klein and show that properties of this structure necessarily lead to formation of a set of secondary topological structures, number of which matches the number of known fundamental particles. Some features of these structures can be related to quantum numbers and masses of the particles"
Ohwilleke would you mind donating your summary of yershov's model on your blog to wiki?
[edit] Cleanup and improve grammar
This page has been edited a lot recently. Overall the changes are an improvement, but whoever's doing it can you please try to make the changes cleaner and better-written? There are a lot of instances where the same thing is said repeatedly when once would do. I'm happy to do some cleaning-up, but it'd be good to have some help, and it'd be even better if the need for cleaning up was kept to a minimum in the first place. As a starting point the page can be shortened by combining some of the points on the list of motivations for studying preon models (e.g. 'Some supposedly fundamental particles are unstable' and '2nd and 3rd generation fermions decay' should be one bullet-point in a list, not two.

- Another thing-to-do. Shorten the last paragraph of section 2, below the list of considerations. It should be in an article about problems with string theory. We don't need most of that stuff in this article. Kickaha 23:31, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] References
Sorry, I added a new reference at the end of the article without realizing that threr were already plenty of references earlier in the article. Why not put all of them at the end? --Philipum 11:09, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
