This is a low importance topic.

I rate it as Start quality. It has 5 good refs; a couple of well formed sections; a filled out chembox and nice picture.

ToDo:

  • Initial synthesis and characterization.
  • Commercial uses, production and trade.
  • Its anti-cancer sentence rates at least a full paragraph, with more cites.
  • Its actions 'reducing inflammation, wound healing, and as an antiseptic' deserve a couple paragraphs.
  • Explain why it isn't normally called ω-6
  • More pictures:
    • IR or UV spectrum
    • Mass spec
    • Space filling model

Nonetheless, this is always going to be a short article; there's just not that much to say about it, at least that would be of encyclopedia-level interest. David.Throop 18:54, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
