General
Victor Ninov currently does not work at the University of the Pacific. I attend the university and am apart of the physics program. He is furthermore no longer associated with the university.

Hi, just revamped the page feel free to make corrections where necessary. Some sources are being listed multiple times in the references and I don't know why; if you know what the issue is please notify me or fix it. Thanks MattKapnick (talk) 19:41, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

110 or 111
Hi, I saw that you corrected 111 back to 110, I have not checked the EurJ paper but assuming it is 110, was the evidence for 111 also declared as fabricated or not? If it is only element 110, it has to be corrected below in the article too. ReyHahn (talk) 19:50, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * No, there were apparently no fabrications found for 111. The quote from the paper: We performed a re-analysis of our data measured since 1994 in order to confirm the previously obtained results and to prove consistency with the presently used computer programs. In the course of this work we reviewed 34 decay chains, four of 269110, eight of 270110, thirteen of 271110, six of 272111 and three of 277112. In two cases (second chain of 269110 measured in 1994 and first chain of 277112 measured in 1996) we found inconsistency of the data, which led to the conclusion, that for reasons not yet known to us, part of the data used for establishing these two chains were spuriously created. In all other cases the previously obtained data are exactly reproduced. So I corrected it below too. Double sharp (talk) 20:00, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

Aided with the discovery of 112, 111, and 110
Viktor Ninov did not aid with the discovery of said elements, presenting false data. The only reason he was believed was because said elements were discovered a week later. Aliquido (talk) 17:38, 3 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I agree with your sentiment, but he was part of the teams that actually did discover said elements. If the article mentiones he tried to falsify those element before they were discovered, I think it's fine. ItzLarz (talk) 19:04, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
