Line 158 ⟶ 160:

Reading through this article, there is too much Frederick Moxley. There are three mentions of him in the section about important historical developments in fdtd(along with people like Yee and von Neumann), and the article ends with his "suggestion" to do other things with fdtd. Compared to someone like Taflove, who appears to be a major player, Moxley appears to have a minor academic record and not many citations for fdtd work. <ref>https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=bH0FvSAAAAAJ&hl=en</ref> I suspect this is a case of self-promotion. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/128.149.87.38|128.149.87.38]] ([[User talk:128.149.87.38#top|talk]]) 09:56, 28 September 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:You're right, there have been a series of single purpose accounts who have done nothing but add mentions of Moxley on various articles, including this one. I've cleaned it up. [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]] ([[User talk:MrOllie|talk]]) 02:33, 6 July 2025 (UTC)

== "Popularity" vs "advantages" ==

It seems to me that the points demonstrating the "popularity" for FDTD and the "advantages" of the method, are, for all practical purposes, the same. The method is popular because of its advantages, after all. I suggest we merge this list into just one place. [[User:אקעגן|אקעגן]] ([[User talk:אקעגן|talk]]) 03:30, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
