Request questions from sites on the StackExchange networks that are on-topic here too, to be imported here. Moderators may then import the question.

Addendum

This thread can not only be used to request importing single questions, but PhysicsOverflow members who like some or all of their (for PhysicsOverflow on topic) SE posts imported can say so in a corresponding answer here too. Any other specific list of questions is fine too.

@RonMaimon I agree, but hide, not delete (delete erases from the database itself).  

@Dilaton On SE, answers can be ordered by time if one needs to, but not here.  

@RonMaimon hiding is ok But concerning references and study material (concerning advanced topics) they newer cluttered any site on SE (not the ones I was interested in) so they will not here either. They were considered legitimate in TP.SE and they are not forbidden on MathOverflow. So please dont introduce this for (advanced) students and people who want to learn about a new topic obstructive SE point of view (in SE they always said you can ask in chat which means forget about it because there are no physics people in chat)

ok, but the point is that it shouldn't come with rep, and it's extremely easy to do, and it only needs to be done once in each topic, so perhaps when reviews are up, it can be done in reviews. You can ask the same question on each topic, I think it's best to make a literature review for each tag on reviews, so that each topic has a set of references people can add to. It's just not effort to find literature.

@Ron Maimon what do you mean exactly by "the post disappeared"?! I hope there's no auto-deletion in Q2A core, like there is on SE.  

I meant it moved to a random position in the questions list, it wasn't bumped anymore.

Nah, I think we do not (yet) have to start deleting, this and the community moderation threads can naturally get pretty long, but I conjecture that thethe number of answers can get large but it should stay finite ...

Ok, hid them. If you find this annoying, unhide. I still think book recommendations belongs in meta, it will clutter up the main site. (I unhid them myself, as it caused the question to disappear for lack of activity)

[IMPORTED]

Could you please import this? I never got an answer to it, and it feels appropriate (comes from a Witten paper!).

It has been closed on Physics SE but I disagree with the reasons.@LewisMiller

Hi Lewis, it is now here.
 

Thanks for the import.  I'm looking forward to the reaction it will receive in PhysicsOverflow.

OK, I have imported (and bumped) questions 1, 4, and 5 (2 and 3 we already had).

It is probably best to not import and bump them all at once (?), even though these are nice questions ...

The questions are now here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. Some of them have already been imported earlier.

Hm, neither are accessible from the wayback machine or the google web-cache. Arnold, you have access to deleted questions on SE, right? Could you save the pages as HTML files and send them to me to reconstruct it?

@dimension10: They were deleted automatically (i.e., not by the moderators)  according to one of the following SE rules; http://physics.stackexchange.com/help/roomba

I don't know how to get the html from my laptop at home, but can do it from my university environment (probably not before tomorrow afternoon).

Hi, I was wondering if the following could be imported?
