Really????

@Praseodymium-141 and Keresluna: Why do people start articles like this? Children's games? Are people trying to prove that they are not chemists? This stuff does not exist and there is barely any literature. --Smokefoot (talk) 17:56, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Smokefoot: As far as I can tell, the 1984 Russian paper is treated as reliable by multiple secondary sources. For example, it's used as a source for Table 6 ("State of the art in the knowledge of inorganic perchlorato complexes") of the following review paper, which you've cited elsewhere, e.g. in this edit to Nickel(II) perchlorate.
Pascal, Jean-Louis; Favier, Frédéric (1998). "Inorganic Perchlorato Complexes". Coordination Chemistry Reviews. 178–180: 865–902. doi:10.1016/S0010-8545(98)00102-7.
Admittedly, I'm still learning about sourcing ... under WP:NOTLINKSINCHAIN, the lack of analysis might make the 1998 paper's Table 6 listing a mere repetition of the 1984 primary source? (But then, given the 1998 review paper considers the 1984 paper to be a reliable source, it's probably still usable here under WP:PRIMARYNOTBAD?) Preimage (talk) 14:03, 28 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
