Byers-yang theorem edit

 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Byers-yang theorem, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.scientificlib.com/en/Physics/TheoreticalPhysics/HellmannFeynmanTheorem.html.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Disambiguation link notification for September 4 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Virial theorem, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hamiltonian. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hendrika Johanna van Leeuwen photograph usage? edit

Dear Brienanni,

My name is Peter. I am writing a science book and am currently discussing the Bohr-van Leeuwen theorem. I would like to include a photograph of Hendrika in the margin and write a few sentences on who she was and her contribution to magnetism. Would you happen to know if I can have permission to use the image on the wikipedia page? I hope you don't mind me contacting you regarding this, but you seem to have been in contact with the copyright holder. I would be very grateful if I could use her image in my book!

Thanking you,

Peter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.217.133.230 (talk) 22:15, 14 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

File:HJ van Leeuwen.png to Wikimedia Commons? edit

Could you please ask the copyright owners permission to put this image on Wikimedia Commons, say under the licence CC-BY-SA-3.0, or if the creator died before 1946 Public domain? Then Dutch and other wikipedia's and Peter (see above) could use it. The photograph seems to be taken around 1920. Thank you, regards, Hansmuller (talk) 09:30, 25 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Non-free rationale for File:HJ van Leeuwen.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:HJ van Leeuwen.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 17:52, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

new development related to the Aharanov-Bohm effect edit

Dear Brienanni,

You blocked an addition I made to the Aharanov-Bohm Effect and then asserted that this was my "own original research".

It is not my own research, rather it is the work of Rizzi and Pearle.

It is not original (as in unpublished) because their two papers were published recently in Phys Rev A.

So your statement is unfounded.

the correct capitalization rule is clear, "van" or "de" if preceded by a first name, otherwise "Van" and "De", see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_(Dutch) Brienanni (talk) 16:37, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
(I have indented your reply - hope you don't mind.)
What the Dutch do is not relevant here, as this is the English Wikipedia, and all the above sources are English language sources. Clearly the literature consensus is lowercase van, and I think we should follow the literature. Besides, you are referring to a Wikipedia article here, which is not a reliable source, and even if it were, this is not the Dutch Wikipedia. It is clear from the literature that both the person and his theorem are spelled with lowercase, as it was done in that article ever since it was created. - DVdm (talk) 17:20, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
