Some proposed changes

Remove text and reference: "He is credited with coining the term "Hilbertian Sandwich" to describe expectation values.[4]" Reason: I didn't coin that term (Jean-Marc Lévy-Leblond did) but I did use it in my quantum physics lectures in the Fall 2016 semester. This was probably written, in good humor, by one of my university students. Link to Ref. [4] is broken since it is to my lecture notes and only accessible to University of Virginia students who were enrolled in the course.

Replace Ref [3] with http://physicstoday.scitation.org/do/10.1063/PT.4.0337/full/

Thank you! Sorry about not paying attention to COI. Opfister (talk) 10:40, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any reason for removing the third reference, but I added the one you requested in addition to it. Thanks for following COI protocol now. You didn't write anything blatantly self-promotional (I've seen far worse) so don't worry about the incident. Best, Altamel (talk) 18:16, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
