Talk:Quark Mine

I know this is unofficial terminology, but where does the "quark" part come from? - Gargomon251 (talk) 21:08, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

A "quark" is the concept of the particles that make up protons, neutrons, and electrons. Ergo, the smallest possible thing in existence, I think. Teamrocketspy621 (talk) 21:28, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Hardly a concept. Cool stuff, guys. Miles (talk) 21:47, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

That's not QUITE what I was asking. Why did they call it "quark" mine? What does this object have to do with quarks? If anything, I'd say the green "electrical" burst looks more like plasma or something. - Gargomon251 (talk) 21:51, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Because it was the first thing that popped into my head when I was thinking about what to call it. Toomai Glittershine eXemplary Logic 21:56, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

...So you just named it a random word? :( - Gargomon251 (talk) 22:08, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Id call it an motion sensor bomb..but that has already been used ;) --KoRoBeNiKi (talk) 22:40, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Recent move

I'd like to know why this was moved to a lowercase title. Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy 02:24, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

It's proper. Quark is the object's first name, and mine is last. Both names don't need to be capitalized at all, really, but "mine" is not of significance this object is not a person. BNK ^[E|T|C] 02:27, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

For proper nouns, all of the constituents are supposed to be capitalised (unless it's a word of little significance, such as a preposition or article). ^Smiddle 君怒る? 19:41, 2 August 2011 (EDT)
