Talk:Bruno Rossi

tesis advisor?
Why is not his thesis advisor named? Who was it? The mathematics people have a much more complete listing of advisors, sponsors, etc — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clever Hans (talk • contribs) 18:04, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

Comment on the GA Review process
Bruno Rossi's prodigious role as the founding father of X-ray astronomy can not be covered in a single sentence. The word "good" can not be used to describe an article on Rossi that does not mention Riccardo Giacconi. Its use here was orchestrated by the nominator and his crony, the reviewer, in a rushed pursuit of a weird Military History agenda to anoint multiple articles as GA with little concern for their quality and completeness.

 * I regret that the reviewer is not my crony. But we are agreed that the quality of the article meets the Good Article criteria. This requires only that the article is "broad" in its coverage of the subject. It must "address the main aspects of the topic" and while "it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail". It does not require the "comprehensive" coverage that is a requirement at the featured article (FAC) level. That the treatment of Rossi's role as the father of X-ray astronomy was less comprehensive than other parts of the article did not escape notice. I encourage you to expand the section on X-Ray astronomy. You are most welcome to do so. Otherwise, I will do it when I get the opportunity. I think the article is close to FAC standard.

 * I understand it may appear strange that I reviewed several articles nominated by the same user in a row. My response is that I have recently returned to Wikipedia following a few years of not editing, and my interests in engineering and physics have led me to attempt to clear off the backlog of the older GA nominations in those categories.  I have reviewed articles not nominated by this user recently.
 * Regarding coverage - I most definitely believe this article meets GA coverage standards for main aspects of this topic. I had some concerns about detail above, but they have been addressed.  Corvus coronoides  talk 02:48, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
 * It is quite normal to have a single editor review a series of articles on a common topic. Figure Skating Fan and The Rambling Man have both reviewed whole series of my articles. Hawkeye7 (talk) 03:10, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
