 * I did not mean to create a war.
 * BUT I seriously believe that the current intro to the accelerometer page is a bit pathetic, scaring off anyone who might be interested in using accelerometers for something serious (other than talking about them). Sorry I don't mean to be rude.
 * But I will leave your page in peace and let people learn useful things about accelerometers elsewhere

 * I also undid this edit. Please have a look at wp:Reliable sources. Thanks. - DVdm (talk) 15:03, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Ann-Marie, can you be more specific about what is wrong with the introduction? There is a tricky balance in wiki articles on physics, to make them correct and true to reliable sources, while also accessible enough to be informative to non-experts.  Certainly that article can be improved (that's pretty much always possible for any article), so if you can please be specific about what bothers you or what you think is missing, it's likely we can find a way to improve it.  Thanks.  Waleswatcher  ( talk ) 16:43, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * By the way if you do have ideas about this it's maybe best to discuss them here.  Waleswatcher  ( talk ) 16:49, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
