Edit to Invention of radio
Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your edit to Invention of radio. I see it was reverted. The reason Jagadish Chandra Bose is not considered the "inventor of radio", although he was a great pioneering researcher in the field, is that as far as we know he did not transmit information (Morse code) with his equipment, as Marconi did. Beginning in 1894, a number of researchers transmitted radio waves short distances: among them Bose, Oliver Lodge, and Augusto Righi, but they were scientists who were only interested in researching radio waves. They could have transmitted Morse code, but they didn't believe that radio waves could transmit long distances, beyond the horizon. Marconi alone, from his beginning was trying to develop a practical radio communication system, and in a long series of experiments from 1894-1901 singlehandedly developed radiotelegraphy transmitters and receivers capable of communicating at intercontinental distances. On Wikipedia, everything we write has to be supported by WP:reliable sources (see WP:Verifiability), such as history books about radio. These credit Marconi as the "father of radio" Sarkar, p.349.

I appreciate someone who is interested in improving these articles, as you are, and there are many things that could be improved. If you have any questions, leave a message below, or on my Talk page: User talk:Chetvorno. Cheers --ChetvornoTALK 16:37, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
