What part of the plant, exactly?
The first major paragraph says "The useful part of this plant is the bark of the wood (secondary-xylem) of the stem. This wood is often mistaken as the pith" which seems to say that the bark is the used part of the plant. Then it says "The sholapith is the cortex or core of the plant and is about 1.5 inch across" which makes is sound as if the core of the plant is 1.5 inches and is the used part of the plant, which contradicts the first sentence. Then the caption says "The central, dark hollow tube contained the pith which disappeared with the ageing of the plant" which seems to say that the central core of the plant is small, which seems to contradict the second sentence.

Can anyone provide some clarity about what part of the plat is actually used, and clean up those sentences? Thanks! Chconnor (talk) 07:04, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Number punctuation question
Is the punctuation for 1,10,000-1,20,000 correct? I don't think I'm familiar with the pattern. Fanccr (talk) 00:35, 19 January 2024 (UTC)


 * If this is a normal punctuation for this currency, please at least someone mention whether 1,10,000 is more or less than 90,000 147.161.228.162 (talk) 10:37, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Polystyrene
Removed the comparison. Ref broken but way-back machine has it here [] Ref does not support the text. Springnuts (talk) 18:26, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
