Explaining

I patrolled your page. I went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that your page was okay: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which I would delete someone's page without asking. Then I clicked "patrolled" to remove it from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all. DS (talk) 01:25, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of AdS/CFT correspondence

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article AdS/CFT correspondence you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of SPat -- SPat (talk) 00:21, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again for your time! Polytope24 (talk) 00:39, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of AdS/CFT correspondence

The article AdS/CFT correspondence you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:AdS/CFT correspondence for comments about the article. Well done! Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of SPat -- SPat (talk) 23:22, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article Mirror symmetry (string theory) you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Mirror symmetry (string theory) for comments about the article. Well done! ColonelHenry (talk) 15:38, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While waiting for the bot to transclude the GA1 template, you can find my review at Talk:Mirror symmetry (string theory)/GA1. Congratulations to you for such a thoroughly prepared and informative article.--ColonelHenry (talk) 15:38, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

Congratulations

On having AdS/CFT correspondence promoted to FA status! You were a joy to work with and I was impressed with your patience throughout the FA process, more patience I could have mustered. Cheers, --Mark viking (talk) 00:06, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes congratulations. We definitely need more articles like yours. --Laser brain (talk) 00:59, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks to both of you for helping out! Polytope24 (talk) 02:11, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Main Page appearance: AdS/CFT correspondence

This is a note to let the main editors of AdS/CFT correspondence know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on December 8, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask Bencherlite (talk · contribs). You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 8, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

A cross section of anti-de Sitter space

The anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence is a conjectured relationship in theoretical physics between two kinds of physical theories. On one side of the correspondence are conformal field theories, including theories similar to the Yang–Mills theories that describe elementary particles. On the other side of the correspondence are are anti-de Sitter spaces (cross section depicted), which are used in theories of quantum gravity, formulated in terms of string theory or M-theory. Proposed by Juan Maldacena in late 1997, the AdS/CFT correspondence represents a major advance in our understanding of string theory and quantum gravity. This is because it provides a non-perturbative formulation of string theory and because it is the most successful realization of the holographic principle, an idea in quantum gravity originally proposed by Gerard 't Hooft. In addition, it provides a powerful toolkit for studying strongly coupled quantum field theories and has been used to study many features of nuclear and condensed matter physics by translating problems in those subjects into more mathematically tractable problems in string theory.

Precious

field theory
Thank you for quality articles on physics, such as anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence and Mirror symmetry (string theory), raising awareness for mathematical physics, with concentration on facts and a self-critical approach, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

Thank you! Polytope24 (talk) 15:26, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Polytope,
Congrats on the AdS/CFT article! Given your knowledge on the topic, can I please ask you to review the short presentation I made for the Hyakutake papers here and maybe suggest improvements/clarifications? Do you think it's a good idea to link this recent work in the AdS/CFT article? Thanks for your help! Alma (talk) 16:58, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Alma. It looks pretty good to me. I added a citation to the AdS/CFT article. Polytope24 (talk) 20:39, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great, thanks a lot! Alma (talk) 20:44, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
