Good catch. Fixed it now to add the correct context. PedroContipelli (talk) 16:30, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: see for instance Robert E Kennedy (2012). A Student's Guide to Einstein's Major Papers. OUP Oxford. p. 138. ISBN 978-0-19-162748-4. Extract of page 138: "Although these manipulations rid the transformed Maxwell equations of the terms to first order in (v/c), at the same time they introduced terms of second order in (v/c), i.e., terms of the order (v/c)2." - DVdm (talk) 14:25, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations.

The wiki is created by Andrew Stuart, a published author in Sudokus. And the video by Simon Anthony, former UK team member World Sudoku championships. They are very reliable and verifiable sources. PedroContipelli (talk) 20:13, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Outside of very limited exceptions which do not apply here, we don't use self published sources on Wikipedia. See WP:RS for details. MrOllie (talk) 20:26, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
From 2nd to last paragraph of Wikipedia:Reliable sources#Self-published sources (online and paper)
"Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established expert on the subject matter, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications"
Can you explain why this does not apply? PedroContipelli (talk) 20:55, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's a carve out for noted professors who regularly publish in major journals and also have a blog, not for people who have written a self published book. MrOllie (talk) 21:17, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Andrew's Sudoku puzzles and variants have been published in major newspapers and puzzle books for many years.
Simon Anthony has a The Guardian post about him as well: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2020/may/22/cracking-the-cryptic-puzzled-uk-men-become-internet-sensation-with-sudoku-channel PedroContipelli (talk) 21:53, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Neither of those things qualify their self published posts as reliable sources. Sudoku is a decently well studied topic, there are plenty of properly published books and even peer-reviewed journal articles available. There's no reason to resort to using such stuff.
