Pronunciation?

No explanation of the correct pronunciation. This would be a useful addition!

Solubility of americium trifluoride

The description of americium trifluoride solubility in this page states that it's poorly soluble, whereas the main article on americium trifluoride states that it is "a water soluble solid". Pygos (talk) 05:03, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Article review

It has been a while since this article was reviewed, so I took a look and noticed uncited statements, especially in the "Isotopes" section. Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 01:52, 27 March 2026 (UTC)

Uncited statements, especially in the "Isotopes" section. Z1720 (talk) 01:40, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

I'll take a look. If you could mark uncited statements with {{cn}}, that would be helpful for me. — hike395 (talk) 16:07, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
  • @Hike395: I have added citation needed tags to the article. Z1720 (talk) 02:44, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
I see some possible ENGVAR mixing. The article is tagged {{Use dmy dates}}, and that's what seems to be used in the body. That's British(ish). But the article is consistent with US "color" and "neighbor" types of spellings. DMacks (talk) 02:37, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
MOS:DATETIES explicitly says that date format is independent of the national variety of English. Element articles are broad enough IMO that this topic is not so strongly American, so using DMY is fine. 1brianm7 (talk) 07:12, 15 April 2026 (UTC)
Interesting. Thanks! DMacks (talk) 15:06, 15 April 2026 (UTC)
