A welcome from Sango123

Hello, Linus M., and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing!

Supersymmetry

Hi Linus: I did give the SuSy article a pretty thorough going-over back in February, but since I am not an expert in the field, I don't consider that to be "attention from an expert". From what I can see, the article is in reasonably good shape right now. -- Xerxes 14:28, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Top quark

That information is correct; the top quark does not hadronize. This fact was first noted in the paper Production and decay properties of ultra-heavy quarks by Bigi, et al. in 1986. They say:

If the lifetimes [of ultra-heavy quarks] become much shorter than the typical strong interaction time scale ΛQCD−1 ~ 10−23 s, then open-flavor hadrons and quarkonium bound states cannot be formed any more.

There is currently a vote on the Higgs boson talk page over whether or not to merge the pop culture references article with the main article. I noticed you've previously contributed to the debate, so your vote would be helpful in establishing a consensus (or, perhaps, a vote of "no consensus", in which case the problem will be referred to AfD). Thanks! -DMurphy 21:35, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

(Cars) Tires, not antennae

I'm relatively certain that the cars in Cars generally use their tires as hands, not their antennae. I'm going to change this, but feel free to make a case that I am wrong (if you have one!). Hey, my warranty didn't run out after all! 16:54, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, they used BOTH. -- Jason Palpatine 21:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ziocon

Hi Linus, I noticed your comment on the talk page of the Ziocon article. I have nominated it for speedy deletion, because a.) that is not a widely used term and b.) the article is merely an attack page on those who support Israel.--Carabinieri 02:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Greetings, everyone,

If you looked at my userpage recently, you may have seen some obscene content. This was vandalism, and I just caught it. Thanks! MacGuy(contact me) 02:39, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tagging articles

I am just wondering which articles I should tag
and where in the article I should put the tag. Thank You. Sodaplayer talk contributions 04:05, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject: Free Software

Hello, I noticed that you've tagged several articles with the {{WPFS}} template. The template should go on the article's Talk page, not on the main article page. Thanks! -- dcclark (talk) 18:26, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: WikiProject Freesoftware

Sure I will!

WikiProject Free Software IRC Channel?

I think we should have an IRC chan. It should be on Freenode because Wikipedia uses freenode for IRC chans. I'll register it. It's called #wpfs . Click Here to go to it!

        • Oh and yeah my nick is [gosub] on freenode!
