How to verify copyright permission for article Gauge gravitation theory
Hello,.

With respect to your contribution of material to Gauge gravitation theory, it seems that passages of this article duplicate external sources. Judging by your username, it seems highly plausible that you are the original author and the copyright holder of these original works. If you are, in fact, G. Sardanashvily, it should be a relatively simple matter for you to verify permission for us to use this text. But since we do not currently have a method in place to verify the identity of account holders at account creation, we must verify such donations through external processes. The article has been blanked to allow time for that verification to proceed.

Given the history of publication, the simplest way for you to verify is probably to send an e-mail to the Wikimedia Foundation from an address associated with Moscow State University, which should be enough to identify you as the same author of this and this. Your e-mail should be sent to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org]. Your e-mail needs to specify that we may re-use the material placed here under the terms of the GFDL. There is a boilerplate release form at Declaration of consent for all enquiries which can be helpful, although it is a little complicated in that you are duplicating only portions of that text. Please provide a clear link to both of those websites in your e-mail and specify by name the article on Wikipedia in which the material is being used. Once your e-mail is received and processed by a member of the Communications Committee, the article's contents will be restored if your release is legally sufficient. Please make a note that you've done this on Talk:Gauge gravitation theory. You can compose a note or very simply paste the following on the talk page, brackets and all:

If you decide you don't wish to release the material under the terms of GFDL or you are not the copyright holder, as your name suggests, you are welcome to rewrite the text from scratch at this temporary page. As long as the material is otherwise compliant with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, it will be used to replace the previous contents. Please leave a note at Talk:Gauge gravitation theory saying you have done so. This can be a fine way to address limited copyright concerns, and under ordinary circumstances I'd be happy to help out with revising the problematic passages myself, but I'm afraid that I simply do not have the background in the topic to begin to revise this material. :)

We apologize for the additional steps necessary, but as copyright is a matter of legal concern, we must ensure that we not only protect the rights of copyright holders, but also guard the Wikipedia project against inadvertent infringement.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to let me know at my talk page, and I will assist you with this in any way that I can. We also have a help desk which is typically manned around the clock by volunteers.

Thank you. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:28, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Initial context setting, style issues
The following is an absolutely wrong way to start a Wikipedia article:
 * Noether identities characterize the degeneracy of a Lagrangian system.
 * Noether identities characterize the degeneracy of a Lagrangian system.

This fails to tell the lay reader that it's not about psychoanlysis, metaphysics, theology, international finance, cellular biology, or any of a host of other subjects. I've edited it so that it says
 * In mathematical physics, Noether identities characterize[...]
 * In mathematical physics, Noether identities characterize[...]

etc.

Note that I set the title phrase in bold, and that it required by Manual of Style.

I also changed some "inline" TeX to non-TeX mathematical notation, because inline TeX often gets badly misaligned or appears four times as big as the surrounding text, etc. ("Displayed" TeX, however, looks good.) With non-TeX notation, variables should be italicized by digits and punctuation should not&mdash;that matches TeX style. Also, a space should precede and follow each binary operator (such as "+") and binary relation ("=", "<", etc.).

It would be a good idea to say who the eponym is:
 * In mathematical physics, Noether identities, named after Emmy Noether, characterize[...]
 * In mathematical physics, Noether identities, named after Emmy Noether, characterize[...]

etc. I didn't do that because I wasn't sure that was the right Noether.
 * Things like this are codified in Manual of Style and Manual of Style (mathematics). Michael Hardy (talk) 22:57, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Things like this are codified in Manual of Style and Manual of Style (mathematics). Michael Hardy (talk) 22:57, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Same thing again

 * It should be emphasized from the beginning that graded manifolds are not supermanifolds though there is a certain correspondence between the graded manifolds and the De Witt supermanifolds.

When the above is the opening sentence in a Wikipedia article, then the reader can read all the way through the first sentence without finding out whether the topic is jet-engine mechanics, jurisprudence, chemistry, chess, French cooking, or morality. You need to at least inform the reader at the outset that mathematics is what it's about. Michael Hardy (talk) 04:37, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

intro and context setting
"Let $$Y\to X$$ be an affine bundle" is the worst possible way to start a Wikipedia article. That's something you would write if you assumed the reader is a mathematician. Therefore it's wrong. You have to inform the lay reader at the outset that mathematics is what the article is about. The phrase above does nothing to attempt that. Michael Hardy (talk) 04:06, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 6
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Metric-affine gravitation theory, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Curvature tensor (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Dmitri Ivanenko
Hello, Mr GSardanashvili!I've noticed you were a collaborator of Dmitri Ivanenko. I have encountered recently in the classical book (1951) Atomic Physics by Eduard Shpolsky a mention of Dmitry Ivanenko and Arseny Sokolov analysis on the issue of the radius of the electron. I therefore ask if you have access to the mentioned book Classical field theory by Ivanenko and Sokolov to add some details on wikipedia (to electron article). Thanks.--193.231.19.53 (talk) 15:13, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
