:You could say that if the dark matter is made of WIMPs, then the difficulty of detecting them can be anywhere from virtually impossible to just very, very difficult. I think the original author of that line must have meant something like "undetectable so far (modulo Dama)." I agree that these sentences could use a rewrite. --[[User:Reuben|Reuben]] 18:18, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

== Query ==

In ''Theoretical Arguments'', the size of WIMPs is referred to as having "Large mass compared with standard particles". Could some indication of how large be added? [[User:Duncan.france|Duncan.france]] 23:03, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

== Comment ==

As WIMPs are thoroughly hypothetical, I would prefer more conditional tenses used in this article e.g. 'could be', or 'would be' rather than 'are'. [[User:Duncan.france|Duncan.france]] 23:03, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
