10:5810:58, 20 July 2023 diff hist +2 Holographic principle Changing 'axiom' to 'property' in the opening. It is not an axiom, but a derived property.

10:3610:36, 8 January 2016 diff hist −9 Supersymmetry Lead change: SUSY is not a model, but a property of models.

16:1316:13, 2 January 2016 diff hist +4 m String theory Minor improvement of last edit
16:1216:12, 2 January 2016 diff hist +132 String theory Modified recently-introduced second sentence "So far exists no experimental support that our real world can be described by a string theory." Fair to want early notice that the theory is unconfirmed, but not that this means it "can" not even be right.
15:4815:48, 2 January 2016 diff hist −239 String theory →Background independence: Second and third sentences of this section imply background independent criticism is about spacetime being dynamic. Rather, it is about whether the theory privileges a particular spacetime.

12:5912:59, 26 December 2015 diff hist +82 State of matter Changed lead paragraph to reflect quark-gluon plasma no longer speculative.

13:1813:18, 28 July 2015 diff hist −31 Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen paradox The lead sentence was wrong/nonsensical

11:0211:02, 6 April 2015 diff hist +292 Talk:String theory →"Failure" claim appears unsupported

16:3016:30, 5 April 2015 diff hist +89 String theory →Criticisms: Small changes to more correctly refer to "manifest background independence" in the appropriate section
16:1416:14, 5 April 2015 diff hist −63 String theory →Criticisms: Revised/moved some references to critics. Some of the references do not support the accompanying claim. See talk page.
16:1316:13, 5 April 2015 diff hist +1,711 Talk:String theory →"Failure" claim appears unsupported: new section
15:3115:31, 5 April 2015 diff hist −174 m String theory →Criticisms: Duplicate reference to Baez's blog removed (original reference link kept)

16:2216:22, 4 April 2015 diff hist +310 Supersymmetry Revised second, third paragraphs. Text originally accompanying the Quanta article was incorrect, and that discussion should fleshed out in "motivation". Citations added as requested for symmetry-breaking claim
15:3415:34, 4 April 2015 diff hist +71 Supersymmetry Moved Bs meson measurement to "Current status" section. Marked as needing cleanup.
15:0615:06, 4 April 2015 diff hist −1,105 Supersymmetry This section does not belong here. These statements are incorrect, they're based on another speculative model, and they're copied verbatim from the cited article.

00:2400:24, 25 January 2015 diff hist +145 Fine-tuning (physics) Link in text to Naturalness (physics)'

21:3621:36, 24 January 2015 diff hist +1 m String theory landscape minor wording change to avoid redundancy
21:3521:35, 24 January 2015 diff hist +58 String theory landscape Replaced second sentence. It now reflects the fact that string theory anthropics are about addressing fine-tuning of constants, not getting GR and QFT (which are universally predicted).

14:3314:33, 14 January 2015 diff hist −56 Quantum teleportation →Non-technical summary: Removing conflict banner after errors corrected
14:3114:31, 14 January 2015 diff hist +579 Talk:Quantum teleportation →removed text from lead: On my recent fixes to the non-technical summary
14:2314:23, 14 January 2015 diff hist +21 Quantum teleportation →Non-technical summary: Direct 'entanglement' link to wiki article rather than disambiguation page

17:4117:41, 13 January 2015 diff hist +296 Quantum teleportation →Non-technical summary: Correcting/improving paragraph about entanglement
17:1117:11, 13 January 2015 diff hist −705 Quantum teleportation →Non-technical summary: Correcting several incorrect statements in opening paragraph, and removing 2 misplaced/arbitrary references

13:4613:46, 23 August 2014 diff hist +128 Loop quantum gravity →Gravitons, string theory, super symmetry, extra dimensions in LQG: Removed one incorrect statement, consolidated and improved two paragraphs about gravitons. Added some better information about string theory.

06:3606:36, 10 December 2013 diff hist +2,525 Dimension Bosonic string removed because it's a toy theory, not a proposal for physics. Added more text about KK theory, mentioned that it overlaps with superstring. More text about large extra dimensions. Added Brane Gas Cosmology.
04:4404:44, 10 December 2013 diff hist −30 Dimension Changes to reflect that string are M-theory are the same thing, not distinct proposals. Bosonic string removed because it ism Various improvements for Additional Dimensions section. Removed subjective and meaningless word "severely".

23:1723:17, 26 April 2013 diff hist +889 Talk:Alternatives to general relativity Why are quantum gravity and TOE's part of the lead?

03:5603:56, 24 April 2013 diff hist +3,612 Talk:White–Juday warp-field interferometer These claims are still contrary to anything that could be called mainstream science

00:2800:28, 23 April 2013 diff hist +8 White–Juday warp-field interferometer POV marker added

06:2106:21, 22 April 2013 diff hist +189 Superstring theory Added link to M-theory article in opening paragraph
06:0806:08, 22 April 2013 diff hist −575 Retrocausality →Current topics: Trimming out extraneous details about John Cramer which are not relevant. Whole section probably should go. Also fixed the last paragraph (bosonic string theory is a toy theory, not a proposal for physics)
05:3505:35, 22 April 2013 diff hist +632 Retrocausality →Current topics: Consolidated and expanded section on quantum entanglement.

18:5018:50, 8 April 2013 diff hist +684 Talk:Holographic principle Hogan's Holographic Noise
18:1718:17, 8 April 2013 diff hist −80 m Holographic principle →Claimed experimental tests: minor flow/redundancy improvement
18:0518:05, 8 April 2013 diff hist +835 Holographic principle Craig Hogan's claims are only just that. The article now reflects this

15:1415:14, 7 April 2013 diff hist +89 Supersymmetry Sentence mentioning superspace now a bit more accurate

01:4001:40, 29 March 2013 diff hist +1 m Talk:Virtual particle →compare old and new leads
01:3901:39, 29 March 2013 diff hist +303 Talk:Virtual particle →compare old and new leads

07:0607:06, 11 March 2013 diff hist +218 Magnetic monopole →String theory: Reference added for weak gravity conjecture

23:0323:03, 2 March 2013 diff hist +57 m String theory Added reference in intro for relationship between superstring and M-theory

11:2911:29, 18 February 2013 diff hist +2,408 Theory of everything →String theory and M-theory: Added paragraph mentioning various virtues of string theory, before the criticisms
03:4903:49, 18 February 2013 diff hist +372 Theory of everything Introduction now centered on physical issues
02:4002:40, 18 February 2013 diff hist +64 Theory of everything →Present status
02:2902:29, 18 February 2013 diff hist −406 Theory of everything →String theory and M-theory: Fixed several errors and addressed balance issues

12:0112:01, 16 February 2013 diff hist +265 Supersymmetry Rewrote some more of the intro. It is now much more informative, and hopefully, accessible enough too.
08:2508:25, 16 February 2013 diff hist −1 Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model →Gauge-Coupling Unification

21:4021:40, 15 February 2013 diff hist +247 Supersymmetry Improved introductory paragraph by explicitly stating the definition

08:2408:24, 14 February 2013 diff hist +242 Faster-than-light →Delayed choice quantum eraser: Added 2 references for lack of retrocausality in delayed-choice experiments

12:1112:11, 11 February 2013 diff hist +1,186 AdS/CFT correspondence Rewrote some of the intro to be more helpful, including the awful lead. Probably will ad more cites later

04:4004:40, 10 February 2013 diff hist +1,991 Talk:Quantum entanglement Subtleties regarding Non-locality, interpretational issues, and my recent edits
