I suggest that this article is moved to Stroboscopic effect, as the term "temporal aliasing" has a much wider use than this particular visual context. Any thou

Agree with merge: same phenomenon, just different name. The intro of "Wagon-wheel effect" article even shows that Stroboscopic effect is an alternate name. -- P 1 9 9✉12:59, 7 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Agree, merge: same phenomenon (aliasing), with various causes (lighting, visual perception) and expressions (not moving, moving backwards, reversing direction). The articles currently refer to each other and have a section for each other, with divergent text – a coherent merged article would be better. —Nils von Barth (nbarth) (talk) 17:19, 9 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Disagree. It is not true that the two articles are the same. The article on the Wagon-wheel effect (WWE) contains a description of the effect that occurs under non-stroboscopic (i.e., continuous illumination, such as from the sun or a DC tungsten bulb). Although some have taken this to mean that the eye has a frame rate, this theory has been shown to be extremely unlikely, as discussed in the WWE article. Rather, that form of the WWE likely occurs because of adaptation of various Reichardt detectors tuned for the real temporal properties of the moving stimulus in favour of others that are suffering from temporal aliasing (TA). Stroboscopic effect (SE) is a form of temporal aliasing; the WWE is a phenomenon of two types, both involving temporal aliasing. In that sense, Temporal aliasing might be the better article title. There was indeed an article called TA, begun in 2004. That article existed when I founded the WWE article on 13 May 2005, and it seemed reasonable to create an article of the WWE. TA had its name and focus changed on 31 May 2009 to SE and a process of convergent evolution began. If a merger were to occur (and I can see some merit in it), I suggest that the relevant contents of SE be merged into the article on Aliasing, and the remainder be merged into WWE. SE is shorter (5018 characters), has fewer edit (91), and fewer references (1) than WWE (14457 characters, 160 edits, 14 references).Robert P. O'Shea (talk) 23:42, 20 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
