peer-reviewed sci journal, then there're no reliable sources to that claim. In the present case you "just" tell that LM has weblog - and as for most of blogs it's self-published. Then you give link to this weblog - and automatically provide reliable source of information of Wiki material - empirical proof that LM indeed has a webblog. The claim of Wiki article was that LM has blog. You’ve proved it giving a link to this blog and that is it. The question of reliability of information on that blog is actually a different question but it may be addressed in quite a similar manner too. Indeed, again, majority of LM posts has purely news-type character. E.g. suppose LM says that Lee Smolin wrote a paper about this and that. He gives a link to arXiv - and therefore justifies the fact that Lee Smolin indeed published that paper. Then as it's supposed to be done on webblogs LM writes what he thinks about that paper (that is in particular why people create such things as webblogs). As another example – it was LM site where I first learned that S. Hawking (and L. Mlodinow) published his new book “The Grand Design”. The other category of LM articles (I won’t treat all of them) deals with discussion of physics things which are mostly very well known to experts and which LM tries to explain in a "slightly" less technical form. Well, you can be sure in reliability of that sort of information after reading textbooks (or via turning on logic). Well, there're definitely dishonest persons who try to sell their thoughts as truth while they are really opposite to the truth, and therefore people who are not enough familiar with physics are to be sceptical about all posts on unknown for them subject. But then common sense shall actually help to recognize trash or truth. That is how in science questions are supposed to be solved - by logic. There're many difficult subjects where respectful and otherwise smart persons may be confused and as a result tell false things. And you can't say that what that respectful persons say is a reliable source of information due to their authority. You always have to be critical. But as for settled scientific theories such as statistical mechanics, GR or QM you actually are supposed to be skeptical on the stage of learning the subject - this is normal to better understand what is going on - you consider the subject at different angles and in different applications to test it. The final proper result of such critical approach is anyway understanding of the validity of the theory. That is how learning works. I hope I’ve clarified (rather explicitly spelled) that evident issues.

he belong to an active scientific institution and 2/ continues to publish. It does not make sense to refuse putting the adjective "former" theoretical physicist while it's crystal clear he is now inactive. Rather, if you genuinely believe he is an actual current physicist (and it is your right to believe so), the appropriate move from you, would be to check and find whether he belongs to any current institution, and in the present case, you won't find any. As for the reference to New Scientist, again this illustrates the (poor) knowledge of the scientific world from Knowledge (XXG) editors. New Scientist writers are themselves not professional scientists most of the time, but just scientific journalists. If you want to check whether Lubos Motl is a "current" theoretical physicist, you would actually check Physical Review Letters, or Physical Review D, or Review of Modern Physics. Interestingly, the New Scientist article points itself toward Lubos' blog, not any scientific article of his. So to sum up, on the matter of whether you consider Lubos as a current theoretical physicist, I would like to return you the argument and recommend that "unless can find better source " (which means, from you, finding in which institution/university he currently teaches, or which publication he wrote recently in his field), he should definitely be considered as academically inactive. I will also add this little known fact out of the scientific community: in theoretical physics, the publication requirements (in UK universities at least) is typically "2 outstanding articles per 5 years, or/and 4 articles over the same period". If a theoretical physics paper is published by a mathematician, then it's "one outstanding paper, per 10-years span" . There is a talk from the French Field Medalist Alain Connes (who made substantial contributions in theoretical physics by the way) who mentions this. In the Case of Lubos, the publication amounts to zero since 2007. This definitely falls short of any recognized standard in the field. Based on this, yes indeed, using the word "former" is justified. Finally, I am also noticing that I am not the first one here who questioned his active status in physics (in the section "Notability" above, someone wrote "At present, Luboš is mostly a blogger,").
4603:
well-known theoretical physicist in the community). You have to understand that the theoretical physics community is very small, so when you mess up like he did, it's very hard to find places afterwards. When you bully names like Roger Penrose with zero arguments, is damaging for your career. The fact that he consistently destroyed Woit and Smolin didn't help either, especially in a context where loop quantum gravity has received more attention these last few years as perhaps not an alternative but complementary approach to string theory. Despite this, some of the wiki editors above will still not accept that Lubos should be described as "former theoretical physicist". I do believe that, at the very leask he should be descried as "former academic" to avoid any misunderstanding. I still don't understand either that the fact I wrote he was anti-feminist and anti-left was considered as "negative and unsourced". Any suggestion? Should I give the link to the page where he calls the German quantum gravity specialist "our well-known Marxist whore Sabine Hossenfelder". (hint:
366: 4389:"My own observations into encyclopedic content". I'll skip the utterly silly argument. The fact that Lubos has extremist views is not an "observation", it's a fact. What do you want me to do, give the link to the Andrew Breivik's nazi pdf still on his website ? (I just checked earlier, still there). When he describes females colleagues as "vermin", or worse (see comment below, with SOURCED information), I think you clearly do not have any clue of the extend of the problem. Your patronizing tone is just that, patronizing tone hidden under authorithy but zero argument. Please read my other comment below, which have sources. 1316:. This is not original research, this is a de facto statement by the department! Maybe they haven't gotten him off all the auxiliary pages yet (I know departments that still have remnants of employees lingering around years later), but universities don't screw around by "accidentally" removing professors from their official list of faculty. It's conceivable that he still retains some Harvard affiliation, but he's no longer a professor. On top of that there's also the Dorigo blog post above talking about leaving academia in 2 weeks, his own blog shows that a few weeks later he 4313:
display this talk page in a Physics Department as an example of what happens when an all-ruling-who-knows-nothing-about-whats-happening in the physics community, clashes with an accredited-physicist-who-is-clueless-about-editing-rules (I definitely acknowledge this fact). Some fun moments around the coffee time in the common room. I acknowledge the fact that I am a zero-quality wikipeda editor, but I also certify that you do not grasp the full extend of the silliness of your own comments, although you try/seems to be genuine. Again please see below (comment at bottom of page).

help improving the quality of wikipedia articles in that field (in fact, I have been doing so for a while, but it's the first time I change a personality page). One thing I know: by setting Lubos to standards that are not recognized in the field, such as not mentioning that he is now inactive or by hiding his climate denials views, you are putting all the genuine physicists in a very uncomfortable situation. It is appropriate that a scientist should be evaluated by the community (that's the very principle of "peer-review" in publishing!).
4440:"any fool can see" . I'm afraid, I don't see, so I guess I'm not a fool, but you seem to see, so are you meaning you are a fool? Ok that was the silly joke of the day, let's get serious. I'm a little bit disappinted by the poverty of your arguments and the low quality of the point you are trying to make. So, tell me please, when I criticize Lubos as "anti-feminist, anti-left", you are really meaning I have an agenda? How would you interpret then the fact that Lubos describes Sabine Hossenfelder as "our well-known Marxist whore 4106:
huge damage in the theoretical physics community, especially among those who are less experienced and who take his views as valid while many have been consistently discussed and challenged by their peers. Many physicist are more competent but with less online presence so it's creates confusion. I think that if a scientist cease to be active in his/her fields, the audience has a right to know, and to know when the person stopped, helps to clarify the situation until when the technical writing can still be considered as reliable.
4506:
resolved. Alternatively, allow pointing out the simplest obvious facts (that he is a misogynist climate change denier who likely has mental health issues who left Harvard) which are clear from spending less than a few minutes on his blog and which can easily be sourced from there. The above discussions about his firing from Harvard and about whether he’s a “former” physicist don’t fill me with optimism, though. Just search his blog for “Harvard” and you will invariably find him ranting about “escaping from that hell” (e.g.

happens on blogs is often difficult to establish. There are thousands of blog-intellectuals out there. Some of them have an intellectual life that's visible outside the blogosphere; some of them have a blog fan base but will come to nothing in the long run; and a few of them really are doing culturally important "work", entirely independently of academia and mass-media recognition. It's possible that Luboš belongs to this last category, but it would be difficult to demonstrate. Consider, by contrast,
301: 4685:: "Exercise extreme caution in using primary sources... Where primary-source material has been discussed by a reliable secondary source, it may be acceptable to rely on it to augment the secondary source". We need a reliable secondary source; sites like zmescience.com are too obscure to evaluate for reliability. Motl isn't prominent enough to appear on mainstream lists of climate change deniers; if the mainstream media doesn't care about Motl's views, neither does Knowledge (XXG). 3064:. LGF could be regarded as just another blog - a popular one, but just another blog - and its various trends and feuds as not worthy of specific attention, but there are at least two arguments for notability here. One is LGF's involvement in "Rathergate", and the other is the NYT article which uses LGF as a window on blog-politics in general. If I look for similar external validation regarding Luboš's notability, I'm not sure that the feud with Woit and Smolin qualifies. 4644:
believe I have extensively explained things above. But I don't see the justification behind the deletion of the climate change section. This is particularly important because Lubos uses his public standing to promote such views so it certainly deserves a dedicated section. At the very least, as "controversy" section, like it exists for so many public figures. If gently discusses this here to avoid the explicit threat of block from from
1293:). He no longer is. As you note, a Research Scholar is not faculty. Academics are very picky about titles. It is possible that Motl is still employed by Harvard in some research capacity (though I doubt it, given the other evidence), but he is no longer an assistant professor or faculty member of the physics department. The entry should therefore note this (but not claim that he is no longer affiliated with or employed by Harvard). 4414:
material, but if it's all primary material (that is, if the subject's opinions etc. are sourced only to the subject) then it should NOT be included for the simple reason that if secondary sources don't remark on those opinions, they are simply not relevant or of value. But any fool can see that these edits (there's more than a few in the history) are clearly editorial opinion on the part of the contributor, and so it's certainly out.
356: 329: 4251:, I will be more than happy to block you for BLP violations which go by way of inserting negative unsourced commentary, edit warring, original research, and whatever else. You are clearly here with an agenda: to blackball this person. Please consider this a warning. Now I'm going to go through and rev-delete your BLP violations. No matter what this guy is, you are NOT to turn your own observations into encyclopedic content. 1504:
them as faculty there, of course. Independent of any statements or lack thereof on personal blogs, the faculty listing of their institution is universally accepted on Knowledge (XXG) as a reliable source giving sufficient evidence who is employed there. One must conversely accept that if the institution does *not* list them as faculty, that is a reliable source giving sufficient evidence that they are not faculty there.
21: 1797:
pages *are* considered reliable enough to verify that a professor is or is not at a given institution. No one demanded an official press release from Harvard to verify his employment when Motl came there in the first place; there is no reason to demand it now when he's left. I'm calling for uniform standards here; you're making up new notions of "reliability" which are not used elsewhere on Knowledge (XXG).
239: 215: 184: 4448:)? I am speechless: who is having an agenda here, you perhaps? Because what "any fool can see" (couldn't resist the pun) is that here we have a Lubos, who hasn't published since 2007, who is making an anti-left,anti-feminist disgusting comment against a current, active specialist in phenomenological quantum gravity at Goethe University Frankfurt, Pr. Sabine Hossenfelder. I would like to salute 3710:
to be ascribed prominence or represented as indicative of Motl's overall worldview, we need a prominent secondary source, both to confirm that the opinion is a good representation, and also to establish that discussion of Motl's worldview receives enough independent press coverage to meet Knowledge (XXG)'s notability standards. (It probably currently does not.) And, even in that case,
4510:). But of course neither that together with his absence from the faculty list nor his absence of publications is enough for some vocal obstructionists — excuse me, I mean people concerned with quality. Once this article was gamed past the notability criteria there was no way it could reflect reality adequately based on Knowledge (XXG) rules and some editors’ intransigence. 71: 3019:
scientific works (except via arXiv links; some of which seem unpublished), nor does it make clear which of them are his primary achievements, or indicate the significance of them for wider science. There's material about the areas that he worked on, but it needs to be clear that he was a significant contributor in these arenas. Comparison with

because he, at least, could justify clearly why he was opposing my edits at a level that I could provide an argumentation and put forward the how and why of my side. Please refer to my answers to him. Thank you. To come back to the ludicrous "agenda" comment, since you do not seem convinced, I invite

He’s not notable, and so only bloggers respond to his rants. But while his own blogs are permissible as sources, other blogs aren’t by Knowledge (XXG)’s policies. Hence the difficulty of mentioning his toxic personality. Yet, finally, five years later a source passed quality control, and Knowledge

He will persist even if you blacklist or ban him, trust me. He may be good scientist and nice enough on the surface, but (if you know him personally and venture a hair to far - especially on some subjects - you will find out that) he is a nutjob. I think he will damage his career the way he is going,

To be fair, the second deletion review was equivocal, and neither attracted much interest in any case. As it happens, I wasn't originally arguing for deletion, I'd just like the article to be clear on why its subject is notable. It's currently not at all obvious, since the subject's work is neither

You may have missed the distinction between "M-theory", "Matrix-theory" and "matrix string theory". These are different but related topics.

One last thing: Since Harvard has decided to accept Motl's resignation or whatever events led to his no longer working there, it could be considered "defamatory" to the Harvard Physics Department to state that Motl is still employed by them! So SCZens's bizarre rationale for forcing WP to claim that

If Motl had actually denied leaving Harvard, there would be a debate: you could ask whether his employer is falsifying his employment status, or whether Motl himself is. (And even in that case, his employer is still the more reliable source of the two!) In the absence of any such denial, there are

And why would his statements on his blog be a "reliable source" anyway? He can say (or refrain from saying) anything he wants, true or not. He could post on his blog that he's a distinguished professor at Caltech, but no one here would allow that to be reflected in his Knowledge (XXG) entry without

As I'm not an expert in wikipedia editing, I would like to discuss why/how/and how to remedy the fact that the climate change section I added (which had sources, by the way) has been deleted without real justification. I could see the point behind qualifying hm as former theoretical physicist, and I
4345:
as for the "unsourced, negative" comment, would you then suggest me to add them with link to his insane blog? Since that's pretty much the only thing he publishes, so I don't see any solution. Also, the climate change section that you removed altogether was fully sourced, and you deleted it, almost

Readers interested in Motl's opinions on the Ukraine can read his blog directly. If some particular opinion of Motl's is

The other facts about Luboš - his political views, his skepticism about global warming, his opinions about this or that physicist (Bogdanov brothers, Lee Smolin...) - make him, as I said, interesting, but do they add up to notability? At present, Luboš is mostly a blogger, and the notability of what
2817:
There seems to be a faction here who is trying to game the system in order to protect Motl's precariously tottering reputation. The rules exist to guarantee accuracy of Knowledge (XXG)'s articles -- SCZenz and the rest are using them to guarantee *in*accuracy. This is a blatant abuse of the rules.
2144:
If Motl suddenly reappears on the physics faculty list, the Knowledge (XXG) entry can be amended. Unless that happens, you have no justification for why that list should be considered unreliable, and your interpretation of his removal from the list as a "glitch" is conjectural interpretation. What

You seem to insist that in order to change a professor's affiliation in Knowledge (XXG), one must contact that professor personally. If so, why do we not similarly have to personally verify each professor's arrival? If that were the standard, affiliations would effectively never be added or removed
1854:
I reject your "intended for internal use" argument (the departmental web site is the *public* image of the department; deparments may have their own, different internal staff listings), as well as the "updated slowly" argument (which would explain an absence of his listing after being hired, but not

Note, too, that the vast majority of professors with entries on Knowledge (XXG) do not have blogs. If they have not stated on their (nonexistent) blogs that they are employed at that institution, how can any Knowledge (XXG) entry say that they work there? Because their institution officially lists

Again, I do see the good intentions behind your ideas, but those intentions are flawed from the start: you are excused by the fact you clearly do not know his blog, so let me put it this way: do you know that Lubos Motl has put online the full 1500-page manifesto of Andrew Breivik on his blog? This

in this section, there is one thing that strikes me deeply in this debate: what is to be a Knowledge (XXG) editor vs what is to be an actual scientist. I am not going to argue with you or impose opinions, but state a simple fact: a scientist is recognized as active in the scientific community if 1/

That very funny. You accuse us of having multiple accounts? I accuse you of meat puppet. I know this because he ask you to come here in your talk page. We all have right to edit here not just him. He act like he own this page and only his opinion count. You don't like what I say then file complaint

He placed on his e-mail the slogan: "String/M theory is the language in which GOD wrote the world" He stopped doing this when I wrote him "Lubos this is not science but religion in the guise of science". But this is still much better than what a Mr. Gaijin42 writes who invokes the Holocaust in the

in an objectively demonstrable way? He wrote a few good papers on string theory once, but there are many other good string theorists who don't have wiki bios. Everyone in the physics blogosphere knows him, but is the physics blogosphere itself "notable"? At the level of blogs, it's hard to think of

Is it possible for the article to make this subject's notability clearer? At the moment it sounds like his main claim to notability was that he was once an academic, but that's not exactly sufficient (there is no shortage of academics out there). For starters, the article does not cite any of his

If the rumour that Motl has left Harvard gets confirmed (I don't view it as confirmed yet), shouldn't the appropriate text be "He was an assistant professor in Harvard from ... to 2007" rather than "He is a former assistant professor..."? We don't generally use the phrasing "former professor" in

No, you're missing the point, which is that "a direct statement from the university, a newspaper article, or an official press release" is not the standard used by Knowledge (XXG) for verifying a professor's affiliation in any other case. In every other case, except for here, university directory
