i think we should include a disambiguation page for condensation. As its quite cluttered with the link to aerosol dynamics and the computer science, and chemistry links.ok

I don't even think the first picture belongs to this article, since the water vapor evaporates from the cup, not condense over it. It should be removed. Etet245 09:40, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Water vapor is quite invisible, the fog above the cup is caused by the condensation of the vapor in the cooler saturated air over the cup. Vsmith 10:58, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Semi-protect Condensation

This Condensation article has more frequently become the target of vandalism by non-registered users. I think Condensation should be semi-protected. H Padleckas 12:26, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Physics and everyday usage

The lead-in to this article neatly exemplifies the problem encyclopedias have with a title that covers both an everyday phenomenon and a scientific meaning. The current first sentence is completely off-putting to high school students or non-scientists who come here for information on dew or drops of water on a cold bottle. I suggest dividing the intro into common and scientific usage: a common usage definition based on the formation of dew first, followed by the scientific paragraphs. With opening sentences such as 'Condensation is the change of the physical state of aggregation (or simply state) of matter from gaseous phase into liquid phase' and 'Most people think the water is condensation, but condensation is only the process of change', can we really be surprised that some high school students resort to vandalising such articles.
