Stereogram edit

The definition that was on the page doesn't capture the essence.

A stereogram is pair of two-dimensional panels depicting the view of a scene or an object from the vantage points of the right and left eyes. When the panels are seen superimposed in a stereoscope the observer gains a depth experience from the right/left location differences encoded in the panels. Because the view is that of a representation rather than a real scene or object, the word illusion is sometimes associated with a stereogram.````

Hyperacuity edit

As per your enquiry, I have taken the steps needed to move the album page to a disambiguating one that is now entitled "Hyperacuity (album)". This should allow you to create a new Wikipedia article entitled "Hyperacuity (perceptual paradox)". Click on that link, and it'll give you the blank template needed to start the page. Hope that helps. If you need any more help on the matter, feel free to ask! Mac Dreamstate (talk) 12:17, 30 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hi there, nice to see that you're still continuing the work on this article. Although I can't offer any help on the subject matter itself, since I have no knowledge about it, I have arranged the article on Hyperacuity (album) to contain a hatnote that links to Hyperacuity (scientific term). I think it's the best action that can be done, considering there are only two articles bearing the name "Hyperacuity" (if there were three or more, a disambiguation page would have to be created).
Also, one thing I noticed about your newly created article is that you've based it entirely on a single source, presumably written by yourself. I'm not overly familiar with how Wiki goes about this, but I would suggest reading WP:Self-published sources for more information on how to use sources—particularly self-published ones—within an article. As it stands, using just the one source is not enough to satisfy the criteria listed on WP:Verifiability. If you post a message on the talk page of WikiProject Science, I'm sure the editors there will be happy to help you further.
All the best! Mac Dreamstate (talk) 21:06, 29 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
