heard of that before, but the sad part is the only thing the article done was make me wonder where they used Wormholes in Quantum leap?

I think you confuse sliding with leaping [amateurs ]
Really though, considering that we spent an entire period in Quantum Mechanics discussing the idea of Heisenberg compensators [who can name the show and episode?], I will make my point.
When one leaps, clearly one is forced into another quantum state. I think Quantum leap played more with the idea of entanglement than wormholes. His "theory" was [approximately] that our lives are like a jumble of yarn; with points in the timeline contacting other points making a sort of temporal jigsaw. He then leapt from one point in the timeline to another at these intersections. Also, as you have seen, when you leap, you fizzle and sparkle.
Clearly Sliders was a wormhole based idea. Michio Kaku's book Hyperspace was shown in the original episode. We are lead to believe that if you're a boy genius this is all you need to make wormholes. I heard Kaku told about this a couple of years ago. He never even knew anything about it. I have always wondered if he went after royalties. Finally, as you have seen, wormholes make a big blue sucking thing, as opposed to sparkles and fizzles. Would you please be careful with your terminology.

I have always known our lives are like a jumble of yarn
but have never personally encountered the big blue sucking thing
and only rarely at best met with sparkles and fizzles
in ancient times there was a Vulcan halfbreed with pointed ears----and occasionally things sparkled in the
transporter room. by your account there has been a lot of progress since then.

If you put a plate with metal trimmings in the micorwave you get fizzles and sparkles! I'm off to see if I can leap!

ArmedJimmy, I will only tell you one more time: Do not climb into the microwave and hit start again.

do we have any reason to believe that wormholes occur naturally? do we have any observations?
Scientists have theorized that wormholes could be created by manipulating the fabric of spacetime. This could be done using an extremely powerful gravitational field or by using exotic matter with negative mass.
Recent advancements in technology have allowed scientists to better understand the nature of spacetime and the possibility of creating wormholes. Additionally, new discoveries in quantum mechanics have provided potential methods for manipulating spacetime.
Creating a wormhole is an incredibly complex and theoretical process. It would require a vast amount of energy and technology that is currently beyond our capabilities. Additionally, there are concerns about the stability and safety of a created wormhole.
If a stable wormhole could be created, it could potentially revolutionize space travel and allow for much faster and more efficient travel across vast distances. It could also provide a way for scientists to study and explore distant parts of the universe.
As with any new technology, there are ethical considerations that must be taken into account. Creating a wormhole could have unforeseen consequences and raise questions about the impact on other dimensions or timelines. It is important for scientists to carefully consider the potential risks and benefits before attempting to create a wormhole.
