[edit]

Who was the jerk who deleted the medal theft paragraph? It is news, all over the papers in USA. Nobel medals are pure gold and also precious for their symbolic value. The fact that he donted his medal for post-mortem public display and the museum was morons to display such a rare and valuable object without true security is notable and revelant. Restoration is thus demanded! 82.131.210.162 10:06, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to propose changing the photo link from [1] to [2] as this latter link shows all of the Lawrence images at ESVA. In page History, see change made 1/25/2010.

I'm happy to review this over the weekend. Jamesx12345 20:01, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've always thought that the Teller/Oppenheimer caused massive divisions - that's not quite the same, though.
This link is from the American Institute of Physics, so definitely satisfies RS.

Extremely readable article, coming from here in just a month. I'm surprised by the chattiness of the prose in some parts, but on reflection, I think it prevents it from being unreadably dry. Jamesx12345 21:52, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you're your own derivative, you must be ex. Just saying. Hawkeye7 (talk) 05:53, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've always thought that "jams" must be 1, even without a satisfactory numerological explanation, and some brackets. I'll probably remove that tragic experiment in html anyway, and promote the article now. Good work again. Jamesx12345 11:28, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
