Talk:Causality (disambiguation)

Cleanup tag

Maybe there's abetter tag. I just think it looks ugly and doesn't invite ppl to explore the content. I'd like to see more of an infobox feel. 2 colums at the least would be more appealing than current layout. BoogityBang (talk) 16:13, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

The current format seems to follow the advice at WP:Disambiguation so I have removed the cleanup tag. RJFJR (talk) 19:50, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

reasons for undo of good faith edit

I have undone this edit. My reason is that the version that I undid was making a massive load of presupposition that would make the article forbidding for many readers.

Causality is a deep presupposition that is based on unfathomable human experience, while the physical approach of the undone edit is a sophisticated derivative of the presupposition. Talk of light cones and suchlike is valid and meaningful in the light of the presupposed notion, and is physically correct. But it does not make clear to someone unfamiliar with physics what it is all about. The physical concept is derived from and relies upon the presupposition. Physical experiments rely on the presupposition. Without the presupposition, the experimental method itself makes no sense.

I am not saying that the undone version is wrong in physics. I am saying that the undone version is like asking the reader to take the high dive when he is not assured that there is water in the pool that he is diving into.Chjoaygame (talk) 16:37, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
