Re: Expansion of Kumada Coupling
[edit]If you are planning a major expansion, plan to follow our guideline in WP:SECONDARY. Emphasize reviews and books. We have no pretention or ambition of competing with Chemical Reviews or Organic Reactions. Instead, we prefer digested secondary sources. We all cite some primary journal articles, but the real test of an encyclopedia author is in their ability to cite general sources. So check textbooks (e.g. Hartwig's), Chem Rev, Angew. reviews. But do not aim to fill this article with journal citations. I would guess that several thousand articles have been written on this topic and it is unlikely that you (or anyone, me included) has the perspective to figure out which are the most important. Hence my advice to rely on general sources. Good luck and looking forward to your editing on this and other articles. And since you are probably an American, remember that Wikipedia is not a vehicle for US literature, it takes an international perspective.--Smokefoot (talk) 15:22, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
- Nice work. Pretty advanced topic for an undergraduate. I made some suggestions but you can ignore them. I recommend citing reviews and books vs primary journals. The ChemDraw looks garbled. Good luck with your project.--Smokefoot (talk) 17:52, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you! I'll look through your suggestions. I do plan on re-uploading images without distorted text.Jonathan.Raybin (talk) 23:42, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification
[edit]Hi. In Kumada coupling, you recently added links to the disambiguation pages Synthetic and Akira Suzuki (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. For more information, see the FAQ or drop a line at the DPL WikiProject.
