Riemann hypothesis
Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Riemann hypothesis, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:28, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

I request that my edits and updates re: Riemann's Hypithesis be returned to their state as edited by me. The assertion that the original research performed by Dr. Roberts is an unreliable and unpublished source is simply untrue. Dr. Roberts submitted his article to the Science journal "Frontiers of Science & Theory". The aforementioned journal is a refereed - and thus verifiable and published- source. Therefore, Dr. Roberts' original research has gone through the rigors of being proved by several physicists and mathematicians. Accordingly, this assertion is inaccurate and his research is verified and published. Divinelaw1 (talk) 13:17, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
 * A brand-new journal with this as the only paper in it and with the paper's author as the executive editor of the journal? That smells fishy to me. And all respectable mathematics journals are indexed by MathSciNet; this one isn't. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:56, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

I suppose that MathSciNet is the authority on what qualifies as a respectable mathematics journal. That statement reminds me of something Sir Francis Bacon talked about as a principle cause of error, something along the lines of belief in popular prejudice...perhaps submission to unworthy authority? Take your pick. My point is it can smell fishy all day, but you cannot disprove the legitimacy of the publication. The journal's status as "new" has no bearing on the veracity or legitimacy of the article. Therefore, moving to delete an article on the sole ground that it is new is indeed no ground at all.

Proposed deletion of Lynn E. Roberts


The article Lynn E. Roberts has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "A physicist whose 'notable achievements' are a paper with single-digit citations and a crank proof in an obscure journal, sourced only by a deadlink faculty directory entry. Does not pass WP:PROF."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:11, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
