Imide chloride

In this case, German editors translated the English article. At least that is my guess. In any case we call them imidoyl chlorides, akin to acyl chlorides. --Smokefoot (talk) 20:57, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

Ah, I wasted my time. Thanks for correcting it. Do you think it would be useful to copy over the structural formulas? Minihaa (talk) 09:25, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

I didnt like the artwork. If it is any consolation, I have wasted my time on similarly complex projects only to discover that I missed an weirdly named article. I dont know enough about the German Wikipedia to know where they have articles missing in the English version. Probably the historical parts of simple organic compounds - who made what first and how. The Germans "owned" organic chemistry in the 1800's. There is one hard-core historian editor running around in En:Wiki, but I forget their name. They seem to know the De and En sides.--Smokefoot (talk) 18:23, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

Sulfolene

Your edit of 20:07, 21 August 2017 of Sulfolene introduced at least five errors:

1. You used a navbox {{Merck|807994}} as a reference, which makes no sense at all.
2. You introduced the undefined <ref name="e-EROS" />
3. You introduced the undefined <ref name="Brant" />.
4. You entered references using {{citation/core}} into an article that used {{cite journal}} and other cite-based templates, in violation of WP:CITEVAR.
5. You used the temperature degree symbol (°) repeatedly without preceding it with the required nonbreaking space ( ).

I removed the navbox ref; if there was another ref you intended, please insert that. Someone fixed "Brant", but you might want to make sure it was done right. Please fix "e-EROS". Finally, please consider if you edited any other articles introducing the reference errors especially, and fix those as well. Cheers! —Anomalocaris (talk) 00:36, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi Anomalocaris, thanks for your corrections and sorry for the mistakes I made. I admire the improvements you made. I think it should be ok by now, I am going to look for the degree sign and such in future. I would think the error with the citation/core was introduced by a bot? I do not know about such technical details. Best regards Minihaa (talk) 13:46, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for providing the reference for <ref name="e-EROS" /> and for supplying a valid reference for "the occasionally reported pungent smell". —Anomalocaris (talk) 02:06, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
