You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Removal of section in colliding beam fusion article

Hi,

I have removed the content you inserted into the colliding beam fusion article about your fusion reactor concept. While that is the right article, and the right place to put it (most new editors insert things at random locations), the content in question is well below the "notability" requirement for the Wikipedia.

Basically, content on the Wikipedia has to be mentioned in multiple independant credible publications in order to demonstrate that it meets some basic definition of "notable". For instance, if someone writes an article in the local newspaper about the band your next-door neighbour's kids started in their basement, that is not notable and it is highly likely they will never be heard from again. On the other hand, if that same band plays a sold-out concert that results in mentions in Le Monde and Libération, then they have definitely been noticed, and an article on them is a good idea.

The content you inserted into the CBR article consists solely of a single proposal published by you on the web. That is not notable - by definiton - as no one else has noted it. I did by best googling, and couldn't find a single mention of the work anywhere that wasn't pointing back to that proposal. To reach the required threshold, other people are going to have to write about it in known publications. In contrast, it's trivially easy to find many mentions of both the migma and TAE devices mentioned in the article in well-known sources, both scientific and lay. So they do meet the notability criterion.

I suspect that your ultimate aim is to actually build one of these, which will likely cause it to be mentioned. It might also pick up some interest in the scientific literature by other authors. I encourage you to do both! When that time comes, contact me and we'll add the section back in.

I've removed the same information again. Please do not reinsert edits when others object (see WP:bold, revert, discuss). You can discuss edits at Talk:colliding beam fusion to try to find consensus. You will probably not find consensus to include it unless you can show there are independent secondary sources about the concept. Femke (talk) 16:48, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Three revert warning

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 22:01, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
