LASNEX[edit]
- ... that in spite of 40 years of repeated failures, the LASNEX computer program is still used to predict the outcome of future inertial confinement fusion systems?
Created by Maury Markowitz (talk). Self nominated at 13:28, 8 November 2013 (UTC).
The article is over 3.5kB, and was nominated one day after being created, satisfying date and length criteria. Required QPQ has not been completed yet. Text contains some colloquial expressions such as "would do the trick"; these should be rewritten using an encyclopedic tone. I cannot find the quotation "...like breaking an enemy code..." in the Google version of the text - please provide a page number so it can be found.Also, the text states "slight increases in performance would be all that was needed to reach ignition", but a person unfamiliar with the topic will wonder why ignition is mentioned here, as it has not been previously introduced in the article. Finally, does "thermal electrons and ions" refer to thermionic emission? Mindmatrix 22:03, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
Issues noted have not been addressed, but then again the creator wasn't pinged. Note being placed on nominator's talk page. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:54, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
Issues addressed, although I think those are article related, no DYK. QPQ follows. Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:28, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
QPQ has not followed, and will not be following for at least another week, so with regret, given Maury's suggestion at my talk page, I'm closing the nomination as unsuccessful. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:35, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
