Lab synthesis
I deleted a section calle "Lab synthesis". Modern labs don't synthesize hydrogen. The section had one primary source about an aluminium reaction studied for hydrogen power research. I don't think this is notable for an article about the element. Johnjbarton (talk) 19:25, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
- Most labs don't synthesize hydrogen in house. Some do. Not saying it needs its own section, but it would be good to show some common reactions that form hydrogen gas Science Is My Life (talk) 09:31, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
- I'd be happy to help put a section back if you post sources. Johnjbarton (talk) 17:54, 7 February 2026 (UTC)

Hydride anion
They article refers to hydride H- as a negative cation. Would the proper terminology not be the anion? ~2026-13849-08 (talk) 15:41, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
