Wiki Link Problem - Trivial Issue

AI Thread Summary
When posting URLs of wiki links that end with a bracket, the bracket is automatically removed, causing display issues. This is a recognized problem affecting how links are presented. The recommended solution is to use URL tags to ensure the link displays correctly. For example, using the format "wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_universe_(fiction)" maintains the integrity of the link. Proper formatting is essential for accurate representation of wiki URLs.

Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
