Under the 'Applications' and 'Standard' headings, the hyperlink to the Wikipedia article 'Metre' has been spelled 'meter', which I understand is the American spelling, but results in a clear inconsistency with spelling between the link and the article. Please change it to the BIPM spelling, so as to not appear inconsistent (and thus, unprofessional). Thank you. Muffuffty (talk) 13:42, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Cursory check indicates that article uses American spelling thus this change would be in conflict with MOS:RETAIN. Please seek community consensus before attempting to change the spelling variety. Melmann 14:14, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. WP:ENGVAR appears to be en-US (-ize, meter). -DePiep (talk) 11:45, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pic

The pic looks like nickel and not plantium. Can someone please verify. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.193.65.107 (talk) 20:57, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I looked into it. The editor who uploaded the photo said it was platinum, not nickel or "plantium". That's all the info available. - SummerPhD^v2.0 00:51, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

incomplete?

the fourth paragraph of the article seems to be incomplete, the sentence "Compounds containing platinum, such as cisplatin, oxaliplatin and" just ends there. Is anyone going to fix it? or is it being edited? 2800:810:40E:946:BDAE:526A:7CAC:F767 (talk) 00:08, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
