We already have List of physicists, which can mention whether a particular physicist is a theoretical one, so this page seems a bit redundant. --Lexor|Talk 00:05, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Jesus?

edit

Should Jesus Christ really be included in this list? I have never heard of any contribution he made to physics...

Stub?

edit

How can you expand an article called "List of theoretical physicists" that already has a list of theoretical physicists?

Theoretical physicists in pop culture

edit

I suggest such a section be created to deal with fictional physicists, such as "Gordon Freeman", who are currently listed with real physicists.--Lord of the Ping 19:04, 29 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Fictional theoretical physicists - DELETE

edit

I cannot see this section doing anything but diminishing the genius and exemplary contributions that real people made over the millennia. Just because certain individuals have their whole universe tethered to the popular media, does not justify polluting advanced achievement.

This section should be deleted, or relegated to some popular English media page.

Slang

edit

Although the popular term, Theoretical Physicists are physicists theoretically, while physics theorists are those who theorise about physics. Why not the distinction? Is confusing confusion not confusing? I think it is slang. ~ R.T.G 18:53, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

I think notability criteria should be applied in this article. Otherwise, this may be become a forum for self-promotion, trolling etc. Ema--or (talk) 01:50, 7 September 2015 (UTC) PS I also discuss this issue here. Ema--or (talk) 02:09, 7 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Why does the list stop?

edit

Why are there no theorists listed born after 1977?

Trying to do research in which uni's recent theorists got their PhDs from. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sin Stalker (talkcontribs)
