message: The content reduction/replacement performed October 11 2006 by  offered up what looks to be a sincere attempt at content improvement, so I left most of it in.  However, the blanking that occurred at the same time looked inappropriate so I have copy-pasted it back to restore it. I know this plays minor havoc with the history. Worse, it is an ugly article now as a result.  Someone else more involved with this article might be wise to revert back to the last October 4  version and then either 1) work the Jalaldn contribution into the structure, as I attempted or 2) post it here on the talk page for consideration or 3)delete.  -- Paleorthid 17:43, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Unfortunately all of Jalaldn's "contribution" was copied from encyclopedia Britannica. I've reverted them. In fact I essentially had to revert the article back to the version of 00:06, September 6, 2006  by SineWave, and adding the only two good edits since then made by Transhumanist, on Sep 26.

message: I was wondering if anyone was up for improving the look of the Basic Principles section, or in general of classifying the fields. I think math has a very good way of doing their description and visual representation of fields and subfields. Does anyone feel upto the tast of moving the Physical science section to the same standard with me? Also, does anyone oppose? --DFRussia 11:42, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well I tried to spify up the section. Hopefully everyone enjoys it. I will see if I can come up with any ideas to merge basic principles, etc.... --DFRussia 05:21, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I have removed the following section from the article. Any relevant information inside the section should be wikified and inserted in the article in the form of normal text. Feer 12:19, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sorry, I didn't notice that before. The example you give above (the math article) actually looks pretty nice. I guess my main objection with the image-table above is the fact that it makes the article look more like some kind of portal instead of an encyclopedia article. It's just a bit too big. But integrating the seperate images, cf. the example at math could actually be a nice idea. Just try to keep the article layout balanced. Feer 12:37, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Please add some relevant links to the history section.
Links can be found in the "History of" article for this subject, in the "History of" category for this subject, or in the corresponding navigation templates.  Or you could search for topics on Google - most topics turn blue when added to Wikipedia as internal links.

message: This doesn't seem an appropriate place to list universities that teach physical science.  At this time, only two are listed, so this looks like marketing.  Do it elsewhere.  Parveson (talk) 22:46, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

message: "Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation.  The Transhumanist 00:08, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
