Unnecessary Chembox Removal

I notice you removed my very informative chembox on Aqua regia. May I ask why? Your rationale, "Chembox not appropriate for nonstoichiometric mixtures" is complete crap. A chembox for aqua regia exists on many other entries for this topic in other language.

Please put the chembox back. There is no need to delete someone's work which adds useful information to an article. I might add this is the kind of nonsense that's driving people away from Wikipedia. Stop being part of the problem. Drnathanfurious (talk) 17:39, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is a decision by the Chem Project. They decided that it is not appropriate for mixtures to have a chembox. Talk to them. Plasmic Physics (talk) 23:42, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Who cares? This is extremely pedantic. You've deleted useful encyclopedic information over a formatting issue. Stop. If you want to put the information somewhere else on the page, that's okay, but don't just remove it because it uses a particular template. Stop.

You stated that I had misinformation in my chembox. Can you point out which information is incorrect, so that I may update it? Drnathanfurious (talk) 10:39, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the new discussion on WT:CHEM. Plasmic Physics (talk) 10:41, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm looking on this page, but can't find what you are referencing exactly. If mixtures can't use a chembox, then I'll just enter it manually into a table that looks the same. I don't care if it's in an official chembox. The information is useful and should be included in the manual. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.5.34.217 (talk) 11:09, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are missing an important point: most of the information is wrong. Plasmic Physics (talk) 11:22, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay then, tell me what's wrong and I'll fix it :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drnathanfurious (talkcontribs) 11:31, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I did, if you would bother to follow the link. Plasmic Physics (talk) 11:45, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're helping! Drnathanfurious (talk) 12:06, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've deleted it again. It doesn't make sense to me to have chemboxes for non-stochiometric mixtures, because the precise properties will obviously change with the concentration of each component of the mixture. Double sharp (talk) 13:23, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I share that opinion, but the Chem Project has reversed their views on the matter, see Hydrochloric acid, and compare with Hydrogen chloride. Plasmic Physics (talk) 13:32, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Personally it's not important that there be a chembox, but the physical properties of what you usually make in the lab are useful and should be included in some form. Drnathanfurious (talk) 17:17, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've put it back, but with the caveat (in the notes) that it is only accurate if the volume ratio of HNO3 to HCl is 1:3. Double sharp (talk) 12:54, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Who knows, maybe we'll have a chembox for malt vinegar next. Plasmic Physics (talk) 12:57, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
