Olympiad
editVaidman's claim of winning the first place in 1972 All-Union Physics Olympiad seems to be not true. According to the Kvant archive, he won Diploma of II Degree - which was awarded to 8 10-form students. Reference: Kvant archive http://kvant.mccme.ru/1972/10/VI_vsesoyuznaya_fizicheskaya_o.htm

Israeli vs Russian?
editIs there any source to support the claim that he considers himself Israeli rather than Russian? I would have thought that without that, it would be best to say he's Russian, since he spent his first 18 years there, so I'm gonna go ahead and edit that in. Feel free to revert it if you have a source to back it up. 119.224.81.14 (talk) 11:41, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
