User talk:L-H

Dear L-H, I am sure you are moving around the pages on 'Hamiltonian mechanics' and 'Lagrangian mechanics' with the best intentions, but a couple of points :

1. The pages are not specifically about the equations per se, rather they talk a bit about the framework as well. Also, there is a page dedicated specifically to the Euler-Lagrange equations. You might want to take a look at it.

2. IMHO, the titles 'Lagrange equations' and 'Hamilton's canonical equations' that you have chosen to replace the existing titles are slightly obfuscatory and unnecessarily complicated.

A suggestion : rather than moving around pages with the intention of renaming them, it might be more productive if you added some content first, and then thought about relocating the pages.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips to help you get started:

• If you haven't already, please add your name to the new user log to let others know a little about yourself.
• Read the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
• Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
• Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).

Optical topics

Hello. When you create a new article on a topic in optics, could you add it to the list of optical topics? Thanks. Michael Hardy 19:38, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)
