A fact from List of heaviest bells appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 January 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the 90-ton Mingun Bell (pictured) in Mingun, Myanmar, was the world's heaviest hanging bell until 2000, when the 116-ton Bell of Good Luck was erected in Pingdingshan, China?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/January.

Wikipedia

Units

The article, as at the start of 2020, lists sizes firstly in lbs and secondarily in kg, in contrast to Wikipedia style guides. Since most bells of significance are in countries that use SI, it seems to me that we should change units to kg first, in accordance with the style guide 121.200.6.72 (talk) 10:44, 13 January 2020 (UTC) NcLean [1][reply]

I noticed this too, and agreed – per MOS:UNITS, this article should be metric first. oatco (talk) 23:05, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. oatco (talk) 23:47, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Idiom

A more idiomatic past tense of "to cast" is "cast" ("Cellini's Perseus was cast in bronze") rather than "casted". "Off" rarely needs "of", even in conversation: "Humpty Dumpty fell off the wall".--Wetman (talk) 06:50, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed "off of" to simply "off". And I really should have known better than to write "casted".... I appreciate your attention to detail.DiverDave (talk) 21:27, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
