Well, if there are more than 3 related terms, then, I would agree with you. but if there are less than 3 related terms, then you don't need that diambig page.

Karpeles Museum

Hello, HPaul, Unfortunately, the Museum section of the Wiki Jacksonville article cannot be a reference source for the Karpeles article because it references the Karpeles article. I did add a couple more non-Jacksonville sources and removed the "primary sources|date=January 2007" tag. Thanks for your comments. Mgreason (talk) 11:28, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I had a problem with the tone of the article, but given your improvements I rv the tags I had placed. I altered one line of text re "the new Polish Minister of the Interior, who was Jewish ..." because I found it odd that he is not named yet his brother Adolf Berman is. Otherwise, seems like a good job. Rms125a@hotmail.com (talk) 17:01, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Rms125a, should I add the name of the Berman brother? I left it out for shortness, because Adolf is the important one who worked in Zegota, and Adolf is found in Wikipedia. I still do not understand the meaning of the "biodata" reference.HPaul (talk) 17:15, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article about Ruth Cohn

This request for help from administrators has been answered. If you need more help or have additional questions, please reapply the {{admin help}} template, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page.

I have added several references to this article. How can I get the box about missing references removed?? HPaul (talk) 15:53, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You may remove the tag if you've addressed the issue it marks. Just go into the edit window and remove the line at the top that looks like this: {{unreferenced}}. I've done this for you on Ruth Cohn. Danger! ^{High voltage!} 22:16, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Stopping power

I've proposed merging stopping power (particle radiation) with linear energy transfer. Since you've been an important expert contributor to the stopping power article, I would appreciate your views and/or help on this.--Yannick (talk) 03:13, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Spectrometers and Geiger Counters

Hi HPaul,

Regarding your edit (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Beta_decay&diff=645938504&oldid=645464280) to Beta decay, it is my understanding (from the Jensen book) that Chadwick used a magnetic spectrometer with a Geiger counter. That is, a spectrometer needs some mechanism to count the particles at each momentum, and that mechanism in this case was a Geiger counter. Jensen makes a specific mention of this as an improvement over previous experiments, because by using the counter Chadwick was able to make a more accurate measurement than with film or scintillating plate with a human counter. Of course, being rigorous experimentalist, Chadwick also measured using a ionization method (the details of which I'm not sure of, as I don't read German and Jensen makes little mention of it).

How do you think this should be conveyed in the article? Perhaps: "In 1914, James Chadwick used a magnetic spectrometer incorporating a Geiger counter to make a more accurate measurement and showed that the spectrum was continuous."

Or perhaps something like "In 1914, James Chadwick used a magnetic spectrometer built with one of Hans Geiger's new counters to make a more accurate measurement of the the spectrum and showed..."

I think I prefer the latter, but I'd be interest in your opinion! --Falcorian ^(talk) 16:52, 7 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Falcorian, you are quite right.

I did not like the original version because it seemed to imply that a spectrum was measured just :with a Geiger counter - which can only count, but not determine energy.

I also prefer your second version, but please leave out the word "built".HPaul (talk) 10:05, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have made the edit. Thanks for your time! --Falcorian ^(talk) 17:57, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
