Page description[edit]

I've used quantum physics rather than quantum mechanics, to tell a general reader that this is a physics article.Musiconeologist (talk) 14:15, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite[edit]

I rewrote the body of the article, giving it a major extension. In fact this may be around as much information as there is to this topic, with there being relatively little that can really be added. I also went through the 187 papers that cited the original paper by Furry looking for all instances where the theorem was used to see how it is applied; that is the origin of the Applications and limitations section of the article. Not sure what more can be added to this topic. OpenScience709 (talk) 12:54, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If there is nothing else to be said, that means that it is fine as it is. We do not need to extend articles arbitrarily.--ReyHahn (talk) 15:34, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I know, I'm here just partially justifying the C-class status of the article in that it is comprehensive (among other desirable criteria). OpenScience709 (talk) 17:32, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@OpenScience709: I do not know if you still care about this subject, but I just revisited it and saw that there barely any historical perspective if you want to add some.--ReyHahn (talk) 16:00, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what additional historical perspective can be added honestly. The Applications and limitations section of the article does mention how it was historically significant in terms of Delbruck scattering, but besides that I'm not sure what else threre is. The theorem isn't historically (or physically) that important honestly, at least compared to other theorems that have names. OpenScience709 (talk) 18:40, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
