message: Wa (倭) and Wa (和) are the same thing, except with a character switch due to "dwarf" connotations involving the first character.  The origin of Wa does not mean as the article writes "peace and harmony."  It is simply the name of the ancient Japanese kingdom and people(s).  和 (character for harmony) is merely a phonetic substitute character. See article Wa (Japan).  Request this article and the one linked to be merged. They are the same concept and term. 128.135.121.91 03:04, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That article doesn't discuss the "harmony" definition at all, and left me very confused. The disambiguation page for Wa still introduces the word as two seperate concepts, which is how I learned it. This merger is frustrating. Arzachel 21:44, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The article currently reads
:Doubly special relativity (DSR) — also called deformed special relativity …
but I would suggest that "Deformed special relativity" is the more commonly accepted expansion of the acronym these days, and that the first sentence should be switched to read
:Deformed special relativity (DSR) — also called doubly special relativity …
and the page should be moved to Deformed special relativity, or perhaps to something along the lines of DSR (physics) to avoid the issue of which expansion is more common.

Talk:1953 Iran coup

message: Under the section 'Execution of Operation Ajax' we find this line 'In 2014, historian Ray Takeyh conclusively showed that the US-led coup attempt was unsuccessful...the demonstrations that led to Mosaddeq's resignation took place some weeks after the Roosevelt-organized ones, and were composed of average citizens, not the thugs-for-hire that the CIA and MI6 had recruited.'
It is not clear from the article what protests that were 'weeks' earlier are being referred to. As far as I can tell, the (first, and failed) coup was executed on August 15th. The Mosaddegh regime fell on August 19th, just four days later. So when are the Roosevelt-organised demonstrations in this timeline, and when the ones that led to Mosaddegh's resignation?

Talk:Gell-Mann matrices

message: I have two suggestions:
Firstly, the statement that there are three independent copies of SU(2) is not correct. Since x, y and lambda_3 are linear combinations of one another, the three subalgebras are not independent.
Secondly, at some points in the article there is confusion as to whether we are talking about a Lie Group or a Lie Algebra. The Gell-Mann matrices are a basis for the Lie Algebra, so we should refer to there being three L(SU(2)) subalgebras, where L(SU(2)) is the Lie Algebra of SU(2). We could use the more standard Fraktur script to represent this.

message: Unfortunately, I have nowhere near the level of understanding to complete it myself, but I think the article could benefit from some additional exposition on its role in generating SU(3), and through this, its role in the Lie group U(1)×SU(2)×SU(3) used in the Standard Model (per Lie group#Examples with a specific number of dimensions and Special unitary group#n = 3). — Sasuke Sarutobi (talk) 13:13, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Pardon I fail to understand your comment: Both of these issues are dealt with in the appropriate pages, and notably the  Special unitary group#n = 3 you refer to. Why do you want improvements/explications of these articles here?

What exactly, are you proposing? Copying that material here to spare the reader a mouse click? Re: HEP and gluons, so QCD, again, why would anyone come here, rather than go there, for this information? Why would G-M matrices need to know about the weak isospin and hypercharge groups, which, by the very construction, know nothing about them? This sounds odd.

I'd also have to mention the inclusion of Stefan Sobell's website. I personally have no problem with this, but if consistency is an issue here, it is still a commercial venture.

I've seen 10 of these modern 10-string instruments for every one Rennasiance-style cittern, so they are not exactly uncommon.  Yet the article says virtually nothing about them.  the "modern cittern" section needs to be fleshed-out.

This statement if true requires that the box which was opened in 1927 was not the real box and that the entire opening was a fraud. This would implicate the Bishop present at the 1927 opening in the fraud.
