Welcome - nice to see a new editor on the chemistry pages. These pages are the result of a lot of work by many, many people, so I urge prudence when adding information. It is worthwhile reviewing other chemistry pages for style and content. By checking the "ratings" of pages, one can learn a lot about what WE is seeking. Here is the advice I got when I started: Again, I urge cautious addition of information until you understand the nature of the project. Collections of unsourced factoids are far less desirable than a more pithy explanation of basic chemical concepts.--Smokefoot 17:33, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
