"A physical paradox is an apparent contradiction relating to physical descriptions of the universe." If this is so, why then, on this page and others (e.g. I followed a link here from Black hole information paradox), do we keep putting scare-quotes around the word, and say things like "so-called paradox", "seeming paradox", "apparent paradox", and so on? So is an "apparent paradox" then an "apparent apparent contradiction relating to physical descriptions of the universe"? -Dan 22:35, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
Someone added a link to quantum Smarandache paradoxes. Someone should carefully check this out because [[Florentin Smarandache] and/or some Romanian fans have been enthusiastically adding references to his often bizzare ideas in WP. See this Romanian website, Neutrosophy, Dezert-Smarandache theory, etc. --- CH 07:31, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
The book mentioned at the bottom of this page probably does not warrant a mention. It looks like some random obscure German physicist's pet theory to me, and possibly is self-promotion. Some of the Amazon description sounds like word salad. I would suggest deletion. 27chaosmosis ( talk) 19:05, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
Since nobody has said anything to me about this, I am going to go ahead and delete what I believe to be either a crank doing something or someone doing self-promotion. Yell at me if this is inappropriate, but I need to get my feet wet somehow. 27chaosmosis ( talk) 20:41, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.
