From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello GregVolk,

I have nominated Charles William Lucas, Jr. for deletion, and removed most of Mr. Lucas's material from Toroidal Ring Model. I can tell that you have put a lot of work into these articles, but Wikipedia is not the place to advertise new scientific theories. The correct way to gain support for a new theory is by publishing it in a mainstream, peer-reviewed journal where the bugs can be ironed out and major flaws corrected.

On the other hand, I hope to clean up and keep your interesting discussion of pre-1915 ring models; however, the article at present obviously has a highly WP:POV stance, with no mainstream support, in suggesting that the rings "should not" have been abandoned, or that there are things which the mainstream model fails to explain.

You may wish to read the Wikipedia policy pages on Wikipedia:No original research and WP:SOURCES. On Mr. Lucas personally, Wikipedia has specific guidelines for inclusion of academics; see WP:PROF.

Hello again GregVolk,

Please stop inserting "common sense science" links into the article Toroidal Ring Model. The fact that many pre-Dirac physicists speculated that the electron was a ring? Notable. The fact that half a dozen people with Web pages still think it is? Not notable. Please come back after (a) you've read WP:SOURCES, and (b) after one of these people publishes a peer-reviewed article in the mainstream physics literature.

[edit] Winston H. Bostick

Updated DYK query On 15 October 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Winston H. Bostick, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
