- 02:5802:58, 20 March 2021 diff hist −1,315 Jeremy England →Criticism: The contents of this section previously was nothing more than an extremely unfair attempt to redirect attention to another person's web page. The claims had nothing to do with reality, and everything to do with promotion of that other page. I hope some of the folks who track and try to prevent self-promotion take a serious look at why such a blatant and factually innaccurate redirection was allowed to persist for this long on this page.

- 01:2101:21, 23 July 2018 diff hist −1 m Topological defect typo fix (extra s) Tag: Visual edit
- 01:0901:09, 23 July 2018 diff hist −39 Topological defect My judgement call is that the new intro I added explains the fundamental concept and definition in an understandable way, and so resolves the first issue of the need for a better intro. However, the article remains way too technical and, worse, very random and disorganized in how it introduces those detailed issues. I don't have time to address that right now, since frankly the article needs a total rewrite. My intro is just a patch to provide a usable idea of what a topological soliton is. Tag: Visual edit
