| The vandals are going rather hard today. Can we get the first few semi-protected or something please?

| :I think I've fixed it. At least, it was fixed when I left this comment. I also don't do much wiki editing on anything, so I hope I actually fixed it and didn't break anything in the process. EDIT: Not sure if editing comments is appropriate, but it's just before 7AM UTC and it seems the vandalism has stopped. I think I had to fix it twice after I originally left this comment [[User:NErDysprosium|NErDysprosium]] ([[User talk:NErDysprosium|talk]]) 06:37, 23 July 2022 (UTC) | | :I think I've fixed it.

− | ::They're back. Semi-protecting may work (though at a cost in useful edits); if any of the major contributors to this site know tricks to track down the physical location of an editing IP, that might open up other approaches.

| Are the "charges" that free electrons carry implied to be monetary or criminal?

− | I disagree with the calculation of the energy of the ²He filled balloon: ²He -> H + H + 1.25MeV (Wikipedia). One Balloon is approx. 30-40l, i.e. approx 2 moles = 2 Avogadro Number = 1.2e24 Atoms of ²He. This means 1.2e24*1.25MeV = 1.9E24MeV = 3e11J = 71 ton of TNT (@4.2e9J/ ton of TNT (Wikipedia)). That is much less than a kiloton of TNT, but probably above the limit for recreational fireworks. The balloon might pop, too.

− | The statement "This would make the Helium-2 balloon-bomb the most powerful human-made non-nuclear explosion ever" would seem to be inaccurate, given that it is not actually a non-nuclear explosion. Should this be edited? [[Special:Contributions/172.70.110.135|172.70.110.135]] 03:43, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

− | How much yield would a Helium-2 baloon have, anyway? I've seen "Lots", "2 kilotonnes" and "70 tonnes". Does anyone know how to calculate it once and for all, and leave a citation trail?

− | Fantastic [https://what-if.xkcd.com/140/ what-if on electrons.] I love the idea that making the moon out of electrons would create a naked singularity with the mass of the universe. [[Special:Contributions/172.70.211.134|172.70.211.134]] 07:47, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

− | Could the title text potentially be a play on "ordinance" and "ordnance" (the latter of which refers to explosions)?
