Welcome![edit]

Hello, Hongtul, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

  • You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:27, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Poor sourcing[edit]

Can you please stop referencing material to sources that are basically fan sites such as https://web.mit.edu/most/Public/Tesla1/etradict2.htm. The errors in the site are obvious:

  • "Tesla becomes Edison's associate" - no, Tesla was one of 200 employees at an Edison electric subsidiary
  • "Tesla erects a new and bigger radio station and sends radio signals over a distance of more than 40 km." - Tesla did not construct "radio" stations, he was building earth conducting wireless power, and he never transmitted anything more than a few hundred feet
  • "Tesla conducts his famous experiment controlling, by radio, the movements of a boat model out on the sea from the distance of several kilometers." - err, no, it was in a pool in Madison Square Garden.

In general, History of radio is about major milestones in radio history --- minor dead ends, also rans, and general fan cruft should be avoided. thanks
