I will take on the review, however, it will take me awhile to read the whole article.

Thanks for taking up the review! I might not be very free over the next few weeks, so I might take some time to respond to comments.  141 Pr  {contribs} 07:49, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

I think that would be it for my grammar and prose comments. Keres🌕Luna edits! 15:54, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Images

 * Recommend changing the vanadium pentoxide image to something more high quality, such as Vanadium pentoxide powder.jpg.

 * Perhaps too many images in the Production section, maybe remove one image.
 * ✅: Removed etched piece of vanadium.  141 Pr  {contribs} 16:21, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Facts

 * The phrase 'It is oxidized in air at about 933 K (660 °C, 1220 °F), although an oxide passivation layer forms even at room temperature.' is unreferenced.
 * ✅  141 Pr  {contribs} 19:42, 14 April 2023 (UTC)


 * The phrase 'Electron capture is the main decay mode for isotopes lighter than 51V. For the heavier ones, the most common mode is beta decay. The electron capture reactions lead to the formation of element 22 (titanium) isotopes, while beta decay leads to element 24 (chromium) isotopes.' is unreferenced too.
 * ✅  141 Pr  {contribs} 17:08, 14 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Same problem here: 'Vanadic acid, H3VO4 exists only at very low concentrations because protonation of the tetrahedral species [H2VO4]− results in the preferential formation of the octahedral [VO2(H2O)4]+ species. In strongly acidic solutions, pH < 2, [VO2(H2O)4]+ is the predominant species, while the oxide V2O5 precipitates from solution at high concentrations. The oxide is formally the acid anhydride of vanadic acid. The structures of many vanadate compounds have been determined by X-ray crystallography.'

 * The first part of the section Halide Derivatives is unreferenced.
 * ✅  141 Pr  {contribs} 17:08, 14 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Last sentence of 'Coordination compounds' is unreferenced. Keres🌕Luna edits! 15:22, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

Sorry for the late responses, I have been working on my own GAN, but I am free now. Here are some more comments. Keres🌕Luna edits! 15:47, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Second paragraph of the oxyanion section still looks unreferenced.
