[edit] Cleanup

cleanup tag uncalled for? all articles can be improved upon, this article pretty much sums up trimethylaluminum, it should have a chembox and a molecule pic and much more but that does not mean it is not up to quality standards. V8rik 16:35, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

I agree- I've asked Jon the Geek what he had in mind. Walkerma 17:06, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

I was talking mostly about grammar. I apologize if "cleanup" was the wrong tag to throw in, it just seemed like a hard-to-read article with some grammar and style issues. I'll try to take a look at it myself later.
    • Thanks Jon for your reply, the cleanup tag is indeed not the right tag for grammar issues and I am not sure if there exists a suitable grammar tag. Most of the time grammar and spelling are corrected on the spot by a volunteer. I only speak and write globish so I will not attempt the grammer rework for this article.

Per Wikipedia:Template_messages/Cleanup, I've changed the tag to copyedit. I'm adding that tag list to my user page so I can find it more easily; I often see things that I'm personally not able (due to time or knowledge) to fix, so it's good to have a list that's more specific than cleanup.

[edit] Picture

The picture is wrong as the bridging methyl groups are not oriented as shown. They are oriented symmetrically between the Al atoms such that a mirror plane exists that connects the two bridging carbons and is perpendicular to the molecule plane (Al-C-Al'-C').
