thread_title:  Reference to broken DOI 

message: It stated in the article that "In 1986, he was finally able to show that instanton contributions solve the Adler–Bell–Jackiw anomaly, the topic of his master's thesis.[24]". Not that I am an expert in this subject, but as far as I am aware the U(1) problem was solved by him 10 years earlier in the paper Phys. Rev. Lett. 37, 8–11 (1976). Does anybody have more information on this?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.61.11.130 (talk) 09:09, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

message: Reading Tussenvoegsel might make you wonder if 't Hooft's surname should be given as 'T Hooft when on its own or at the beginning of a sentence. Luckily, Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Capital_letters#Personal_names says "Use the style that dominates for that person in reliable sources; for a living subject, prefer the spelling consistently used in the subject's own publications." and 't Hooft has a web page that explains https://webspace.science.uu.nl/~hooft101/ap.html "The first ‘t’ in my name should never be capitalized."
I suspect—as, by contrast, he seems to capitalize Van in surnames when it's not by a first name or initial— this because 't is short for het, which when capitalized becomes Het but still abbreviates to 't. But that doesn't really matter, as his preference is expressed. Dingolover6969 (talk) 00:42, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not just his preference. It is the only correct way of handeling names starting with 't. The first character in that name is not "t", it is "'".TR 07:56, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
