Vanadium crystal bars and cube

~~... that vanadium (pictured) is detected spectroscopically in the light from the Sun and other stars?~~ Source: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1086/130379

Improved to Good Article status by Praseodymium-141 (talk). Nominated by BorgQueen (talk) at 15:21, 23 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Vanadium; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

Recent GA and neither me nor Earwig can find any copyvio. Source verified and cited inline. QPQ done. Hook is... interesting, though I would ask "what isn't detected in spectroscopy?". Just in case, I propose a couple other hooks, for the promoter:

ALT1: ... that vanadium (pictured) was named after the Norse goddess Freyja?
ALT2: ... that after vanadium (pictured) was first discovered in 1801, its discoverer mistakenly believed he had instead extracted chromium, and retracted his claim?

Thanks @Juxlos:. Your proposed hooks will need to be approved by someone else. BorgQueen (talk) 09:21, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

ALT1 approved. I agree with the concern regarding ALT0, and ALT2 is confusingly worded (it would need to be explained that the "mistakenly believed" was a second step for the "retracted" to follow). ALT1 works well and should attract readers surprised by the non-obvious connection between the two names. Onceinawhile (talk) 21:59, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

I am guessing that a mirror picked up the article at 94%. Bruxton (talk) 01:48, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Proposed merge of Native vanadium into Vanadium

Extremely narrowly scope article about a rare form of a metal, better covered as a redirect and section Sadads (talk) 01:15, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Suspicious reference

"It is oxidized in air at about 933 K (660 °C, 1220 °F), although an oxide passivation layer forms even at room temperature."

I can't find anything verify about this inside reference . When I go deeper via that query string at the link of , I found this that have everything very similar to Misplaced Pages. I suspect citogenesis happened here. Nucleus hydro elemon (talk) 07:33, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
