 * Hai AntiDionysius, I am a Chemist. And I intentionally deleted two lines as they dealt with the toxicity of hydrogen cyanide and the dosage levels required to kill a human within a minute or within 10 minutes. I am afraid such publicly available data may be potentially dangerous, either it may be a self-harm (suicidal) or terrorism perspective. SO i removed that two lines. In fact, less than that mentioned dosage may have a harmful impact on the human body.
 * The deleted lines are
 * "A hydrogen cyanide concentration of 100–200 ppm in breathing air will kill a human within 10 to 60 minutes. A hydrogen cyanide concentration of 2000 ppm (about 2380 mg/m3) will kill a human in about one minute." Rrcmks (talk) 17:29, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
 * By the way, please express your views on this. Rrcmks (talk) 17:34, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Not to contradict AntiDionysius. I assume that this information is available online and from many other sources.   The information continues to exist in the article history, even if it is just edited out of the article.  Thus your concern and actions may not be very effective.  If you are still of the opinion that this redaction is really needed, I suggest you put it on the talk page Of the article. Also you should consider contacting and WP:administrator and consider asking for a WP:Revdel to really eradicate it.  Cheers.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 17:36, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I saw your reason in your edit summary, yes. Wikipedia is just a summary of what's written in high quality sources elsewhere; we're not providing any new information independently (indeed, we have specific policies against doing that). So this isn't posing any danger on its own, and I'd argue information on the toxicity of a chemical is a potentially highly useful thing for people to know.
 * As @7&6=thirteen said, if you do really think this info poses some danger, you could start a discussion on the article talk page about it, and try to establish consensus for the removal of the info. I think you are probably unlikely to succeed, but hey I'm wrong about lots of things. AntiDionysius (talk) 17:44, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
