Soil measuring and surveying device edit

Dear Sillerkiil,

You added an illustration to the Soil wikipage. This is great! However, would it be possible to add a reference to a paper or a webpage describing the device? This would help the reader to better understand what is measured and how. Do you agree?

Best regards,

Mpemba effect edit

Great video on Mpemba effect, but it doesn't appear to be illustrating the effect as described, there's nothing in the article text about throwing boiling water into the air, and this talk page discussion questions some images that were removed in 2019.

I'd guess that throwing boiling steam into the air wasn't actually a significantly faster freeze than spraying mist droplets of the same size but cold. --Belbury (talk) 15:13, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
