  • 03:04 03:04, 18 February 2024 diff hist 0 PyrrhotiteReverted unsourced and inaccurate change regarding magnetism as a function of iron fraction by IP 197.230.122.194 on 17 Mar. 2023 (oldid=1145109990). Though perhaps counterintuitive, it's indeed a ratio of Fe:S *less* than unity which produces ferromagnetism roughly in proportion to the Fe deficit, as sources and article body indicate. Mackinawite (Fe_(1+x)S , where x=[0 to 0.11]) also avoids troilite's antiferromagnetism, but is paramagnetic rather than ferromagnetic.

"Comet dust" isn't really the most appropriate descriptor here as that term generally implies small-sized comet matter that is in outer space; much of the material ejected by the K-T impact was sourced from the Earth itself; and the impactor wasn't necessarily (& probably wasn't; cf. https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.08768) a comet, as opposed to a carbanaceous asteroid.

But also, on which page(s) of "Niger Republic: Political and Economic Environment HIstory" by Max Belton ( ISBN 978-1-365-72033-8 ) are the relevant assertions made? Where can one find other work by Max Belton which suggests they're a reliable journalist? Let's use Talk page. Tag: Manual revert

Also down-adjusted Kabkabiya's indicative dot size to 16: third-party maps (e.g. https://ontheworldmap.com/sudan/sudan-political-map.jpg ) and satellite imagery (Google Maps, etc.) show Kabkabiya's built-up area is considerably smaller than that of ND capital al-Fashir and it lacks an airport.

And the source article doesn't actually state that the Sudan-Ethiopia land border remains open in either direction (nor even that anyone has claimed it does), but simply reads: "Chad closed its border with Sudan while Ethiopia and Kenya called for restraint."

Committed by adversarial automated process? Please check history/diffs and use 'undo' function when misinformation seen; partial-fixing forces manual reversion of remaining corrupted items.

First sentence of Introduction section had replaced the simple "...describing waves" with "...describing standing wave field..." which is badly misleading. Preserved explicit mention of standing waves here at the cost of arguable redundancy.

While archive.org records are not dispositive, verification that such allegations have been reported by a reliable source is clearly needed for this statement especially in the lead section.

If there's an expert source(s) opining to this effect it should be provided and the statement attributed. Otherwise this is just inappropriate 'original research' editorializing.

See Talk. Prior editor(s) continually adding claim was blocked for sockpuppetry. Couldn't readily verify cited article even exists let alone that it contains the given claim, or that said claim's anywhere near expert consensus.

Cited source itself states 18.4GW is current average Iraqi electric power output (incl. 1.2GW imports) and ~28GW current average implied demand, with projected demand of ~42GW by 2030. Current most-powerful deployed reactor designs don't exceed even 2GW per unit; e.g. see /info/en/?search=List_of_nuclear_power_stations .

  • 22:35 22:35, 4 May 2021 diff hist +194 Ultra-high-energy cosmic rayMiscellaneous minor amendments. "Cosmic ray electrons" appear widely studied and mentioned by that name in the literature. Should they be separately mentioned in the lead section and/or a separate article created to avoid confusion, given the ~10,000-fold quotient in defining energy scale?
  • 21:54 21:54, 4 May 2021 diff hist +31 Ultra-high-energy cosmic rayUHE gamma rays are not equivalent to UHE cosmic rays, though they may be related by energy/momentum-transfer events at least in many cases. Given citation doesn't seem to explicitly support the claim written, but other sources likely do. But also the cited ~10^14eV "UHE electrons" are technically not the ≥10^18eV "UHE cosmic rays" of this article's definition.
  • 21:17 21:17, 4 May 2021 diff hist +31 Crab NebulaGamma rays are not to be confused with "cosmic rays"; CR are those emissions inferred to be massive particles (protons & maybe heavier nuclei), rather than photons which have zero rest-mass. In particular UHEγ ≡ ≥10^14 eV , while UHECR ≡ ≥10^18 eV.

Yes "d/dx[a^x](0)=1 if and only if a=e" is equivalent to many other definitions but that's the point, as the equivalence isn't necessarily obvious to those engaging with the content for the first time.

I conservatively state "containing" rather than "centered on" Proxima, as the latter can't be unambiguously derived from Wright's prose, but (too naively?) infer the host study's flare measurements at shorter wavelengths would've required that it be at least very nearly centered.

True anomaly also expresses (as a (non-'aliased') angle) the portion of an orbital period completed since periapsis *at a given time*. To dispute this image's veracity would seem to imply you also dispute that of the article's text. Please explain on Talk if you think I err. Tag: Undo
