Stephen Harrison (20 October 2022). "How Quantum Theories Took Over TikTok". Slate (magazine). Its article on "Quantum mysticism" explains that nonbelievers with expert knowledge consider it a "pseudoscience" and also references some pejorative terms such as "quantum quackery" and "quantum woo." That's because respectable scientific journals—the kind of sources that are required for Wikipedia's science articles—have not embraced these fringe interpretations.

"Many early quantum physicists held some interest in traditionally Eastern metaphysics. Physicists Werner Heisenberg and Erwin Schrödinger, two of the main pioneers of quantum mechanics in the 1920s, were interested in Eastern mysticism, but are not known to have directly associated one with the other. In fact, both endorsed the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics."
It's well known and uncontroversial that Schrodinger loathed the Copenhagen interpretation. Whoever wrote those sentences has an objectively poor understanding of Schrodinger and quantum mechanics. Schrodinger's Cat thought experiment famously served to show how absurd the views of Heisenberg and Bohr were. Schrodinger also despised Max Born's probability theory, another key person in the development of the Copenhagen interpretation. This is frankly embarrassing that an article attacking certain perspectives of quantum theory has such blatant errors and elementary misunderstanding of the subject. ~2026-43610-93 (talk) 00:56, 9 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
True. I deleted the sentence. The other sentence is unsourced and should probably also be deleted. Maybe the person who wrote it confused Schrödinger with Pauli or Bohr? --Hob Gadling (talk) 08:15, 9 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
