No original research
editHello Rdsaam. I appreciate your efforts to improve this page, but it seems to me that they are in conflict with one of wikipedia's basic policies, WP:NOR: no original research. This means that articles should not include new and/or speculative ideas that have not been published in reputable journals. It may sound boring, but we have to stick with well-accepted and established ideas. Dark Formal 20:13, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
Is this really photon?
editIn the very first paragraph "which via the Anderson-Higgs mechanism makes the photon massive"
There was no mention of photons before. Does this refer to the phoNON, or to the pair of electrons, or what? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.66.9.194 (talk) 21:35, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
It really means "photon". The photon is the quantum of the electromagnetic field, and the Meissner effect (exclusion of magnetic fields) arises from the photon becoming massive. I wikilinked "photon" to make this clearer. Dark Formal (talk) 04:09, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
History section
editThe entire history section appears to have been plagiarized (with some minimal alterations here and there) from a working paper by Pinghan Chu (2006) "Color Superconductivity", pp. 2-3, Retrieved September 20, 2013, from [1]. At the least, credit ought to be given to Mr. Chu for the inclusion of his material here. DrEvel00 03:36, 23 September 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by DrEvel00 (talk • contribs)
