Planckian dissipation
This looks interesting:
It would be great if Wikipedia said something about it, either in an existing article or maybe a new one. 173.228.123.166 (talk) 23:54, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Article listed for deletion
MacCullagh ellipsoid has been listed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MacCullagh ellipsoid. This is closely related with Poinsot's ellipsoid and thus related to mechanics. D.Lazard (talk) 17:22, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

"Science writing for the public"
May I ask that someone looks here, please? Apologies, if I thought wrong. Purgy (talk) 08:43, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- What are we supposed to be looking for? JRSpriggs (talk) 22:22, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- I was –possibly wrongly– alarmed by the roughly 20 contemporaneous edits on the header topic. Purgy (talk) 07:18, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
- It looks like all those edits were done using the Wiki Education Dashboard. They're all either tagging articles as having been the subject of a school assignment, or updating such a tag that already exists with starting and ending dates. I don't see a problem here.

- Thanks for looking, and I apologize for me falsely raising an alarm. The simultaneity and their number triggered me. Purgy (talk) 17:12, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
- No worries, it is good to check that school assignments don't go off the rails. I concur that from a spot check, these edits look fine to me. --

Noise pollution in cities
Does anyone know where I can find good sources for noise pollution levels of cities around the world? If so, please be a dear and drop me a line at my talk page. Many thanks! Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:18, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

Jurin's law
I was editing the Jurin's law article and I wanted to bring this image from Russian Wikipedia ru:Файл:Jurin equation.png, how can I do it? MaoGo (talk) 09:39, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
- The problem has been fixed by a Wikimedia Commons user. --MaoGo (talk) 09:26, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
