[edit] Electrical potential of the reaction
- merge into Galvanic cell that already has a large section on the topic and delete: hardly anyone will search this title. I apologize before the contributor for discarding his work, but one must really read while writing. Wikipedia has lots of stuff already. mikka (t) 02:26, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- merge somewhere - Galvanic cell, Electrochemical cell, Electrochemical potential, Electrode potential, Table of standard electrode potentials, or ... Lots of merging needed. Don't need this obscure title. Vsmith 03:04, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: (about title) i didnt make the title, another author had linked his aricle to this title, and i decided to fill in the blank, about the sources, u can take it fromany chem book if uve ever seen one. To me it seems pretty obvious.
- I may not believe this, but plenty of use have never seen a chem book. I am sorry that some of your first contributions were not so successful; probably because wikipedia is still a big mess, i.e., poorly systematized in many places. I hope this will not discourage you from future contributions. mikka (t) 03:16, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: I have removed the heading because it was messing up the Table of Contents. -x42bn6 Talk 03:40, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- merge per mikkalai but make a redirect instead of deleting. --Apyule 07:58, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- Merge as per Vsmith. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ | Esperanza 15:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect. the wub "?!" 19:59, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- What is the sense of a redirect? Did you read the title carefully? "Electrical potential of the reaction". I would understand the title "Electrical potential of a chemical reaction", but this one is just a phrase, as the author explains, red-linked in some article. We cannot have redirects from all possible phrases (unlike common misspellings). A proper syntax to do a link from a phrase, if you want a smooth text, would be this: [[Galvanic cell#Electric potential of a Galvanic cell | electrical potential of the reaction]]. mikka (t) 20:27, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not too keen on having a redirect either, but I think policy dictates one is needed to comply with the GFDL. I have to admit I never fully understood that argument though, but it does seem to come up fairly often. the wub "?!" 20:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- I did read the title carefully, and I still think that a redirect would be a good solution. I know that we can't redirect all possible phrases, but I don't see why we can't do this one. --Apyule 02:37, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
