Help me!
Please help me with...

Hi, First time. I have a question about a statement made in an article. the article is "Massless Particles". https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Massless_particle&oldid=1084465121

The statement in the article is: "Gluon-gluon interaction is a little different: gluons exert forces on each other but,
 * because the acceleration is parallel to the line connecting them (albeit not at simultaneous moments), the acceleration will be zero unless the gluons move in a direction perpendicular to the line connecting them,***** so that velocity is perpendicular to acceleration.[citation needed]

I would like to contact this person regarding this very interesting statement, and one that I have never come across before. Unfortunately, it has a "citation is needed" tag after it. I would like to know his source. Is this possible? Thanks. Ken Robinson  (I don't understand about the tildes, but...)  2601:8C3:4000:3B30:91FF:96A:2CCF:1AD6 (talk) 23:49, 16 May 2022 (UTC)


 * That text appears to have been added with this edit back in May 2007 by an IP editor. There is no source cited and not much likelihood that we could find the source now, 15 years later. The statement is definitely suspect, since the previous sentence is describing how gravitational forces affect massless particles, not a particle interaction. It is a non-sequitur, with some elements that might be true and others that don't quite make sense. At various times in the history of this article, editors have contested whether some sources being offered were 'crackpot'.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 01:35, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I have removed the unsourced information. Further discussion should happen on the article's talk page, or if there is no response, at WT:PHYS. If you want more help, change the help me-helped back into a help me, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.
