"The article of Jens Lindhard is more often cited with the wrong page number (8) than with the correct page number (1). 501 wrong citations vs. 213 correct citations as counted in 2004. [1] 8 is the number in volume 28 of Dan. Mat. Fys. Medd. The article starts with page 1."
As Toshiyouri pointed out in his edit April 8, 2016 and above, the reference J. Lindhard, K. Dan. Vidensk. Selsk. Mat. Fys. Medd. 28, 8 (1954) starts with page 1. However, this journal publishes single articles per issue, and does not continue page numbering across volumes. Referencing the paper using the issue number and excluding the page number is an appropriate method to cite the paper. I have edited the reference here so as to include both an issue number and a page number. Fbfree ( talk) 19:40, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

I believe that under the 3d "Long Wave-length Limit" the result for the high frequency limit is derived. (see for example Advanced solid state physics by Philip Philips chapter 9.4). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:6B0:1:1041:A117:9D:2B09:F8B7 ( talk) 16:11, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
This article is not written clearly,intuitively. The title implies a discussion of the physical background of TF screening. Instead, it offers a formal and not clearly justified discussion of the Lindhard formula (which can be actually discussed in another article devoted to this formula). A typical example of TF screening deals with the penetration of a static electric field in metals first studied by Rice (1928). This pioneered very interesting, productive and partially controversial discussion echoed in the modern analysis of nano-devices. None of this is reflected in the current paper.
TF screening is not necessary linear, but the paper only deals with linear effects. At the end of the paper, wires and cylinders are introduced practically out of of blue.
Some statements seem to me ambiguous.
Thomas–Fermi screening is one of many approximation methods for describing the screening (should probably say that TF approach is one of many theoretical approaches to electron screening) . Thomas–Fermi screening assumes that the total potential varies very slowly (TF theory actually defines the variation of the potential i.e. the screening length, without assuming that it is large [or the variation is slow]).

I use current versions of Firefox and MS Internet Explorer. Nonetheless, I obtain read error messages of the kind:

Ideas?
Hi, I came to this article in search of some answers but struggled quite a bit. Partly, that's b/c in my view the article has a few basic issues:
Is anyone familiar enough with the theory to be able to rectify those issues? Thanks! 132.181.230.132 ( talk) 23:14, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
