Non-sonofusion work[edit]

Apparently, some non-sonofusion work of Rusi Taleyarkhan has also received media attention. See [1] (look under "Reactor Research Leads to Variable-Velocity Bullet"). Perhaps we should add that to the article, so that it is not simply a duplicate of bubble fusion (although, clearly, that issue is the most notable aspect to be discussed).

Here is an explanatory link for Variable Velocity Bullets. Abecedare 17:45, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lawsuit[edit]

See [2][dead link]

Notability[edit]

The article should probably be merged/deleted in regard to WP:ONEEVENT. IRWolfie- (talk) 21:17, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

dead link -- both from Wikipedia and from the [original?] dot gov web site[edit]

On April 25, 2013 the web page at http://archives.democrats.science.house.gov/publications/caucus_detail.aspx?NewsID=1824 [1] was accessed (and also archived on Webcite -- at http://www.webcitation.org/6G9lUJpcu [1a]). This web page does contain a link (near the bottom) that is displayed as "Read the full staff report" and seems to point to the URL http://democrats.science.house.gov/Media/File/Reports/purdue_staff_report.pdf [2]

That URL ([2], that is) might well be the source from which the link entitled "House subcommittee Report, May 7, 2007" in the "External_links" section of this article (that is, the current version of the Rusi Taleyarkhan article) (that is, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rusi_Taleyarkhan&oldid=545577590#External_links ) [3] came from. (Presumably at some time in the past, it was not "dead".)

However, that link to [2] is now a dead link -- BOTH from Wikipedia (see [3]) AND from the dot gov web site (see [1]). (!)

I am not sure what to do, but I suggest that, as a minimum, a footnote including a link to [1] -- "along with" a link to [1a] (as the "archiveurl") -- should be added to the article. The link to [2] should probably be preserved (sometimes an "old" URL can be helpful in "finding" the corresponding "new" one) -- but with a "{{dead link}}" tag, which can of course be removed later, if/when the problem gets corrected. (right?)

Any advice? or other comments? --Mike Schwartz (talk) 02:01, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes the page is not the newest snapshots, but you can still find it in older snapshots. I found the report in snapshot of 30 May 2007. I fixed the article. Thanks for spotting it. --Enric Naval (talk) 12:47, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of potentially libellous text[edit]

This page is flagged as follows: "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous."

The lead sentence is currently "Rusi P. Taleyarkhan is a nuclear engineer and former academic fraudster who has been a faculty member in the Department of Nuclear Engineering at Purdue University since 2003"

I am changing that to "Rusi P. Taleyarkhan is a nuclear engineer and has been a faculty member in the Department of Nuclear Engineering at Purdue University since 2003"
