Article Cleanup Co-Ordination Point

Cleanup Co-ordination
This article has recently been tagged as requiring cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards.

The article may have been flagged as needing cleanup because it has been suggested that:

  • the article needs formatting, proofreading, or rephrasing in comprehensible English.
  • the article has multiple overlapping problems.
  • the article is very short and might need expanding, removal or merging with a broader article

For a full list of possible problems see Wikipedia:Manual of Style.

As part of the cleanup process, the automated bot PocKleanBot has generated this notice as a focus of cleanup efforts, and also contacted several contributing editors of the article to bring their attention to the problem. You should use this section to discuss possible resolution of the problem and achieve consensus for action. Only when there is a consensus that the article is now cleaned up should you then de-list it by deleting the cleanup tag from the article, this causes the article to drop off the monthly cleanup-needed list page.

Discussion

Blackest

Vantablack is also made of vertical carbon nanotubes. How is it different than the RPI invention, or are they actually the same thing? They seem to have very similar reflectivity. There's also super black which isn't mentioned. -- Beland (talk) 02:39, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Is Black technically a colour?

How can Black be considered a colour if it is the complete absence of light? I was taught in school that Black is not a colour as it does not reflect any wavelength of light. I suppose it all comes down to the definition of the word "Colour/Color". --212.159.114.107 (talk) 22:09, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 16 February 2018

Can someone add Shades of Grey on the category for the page Black? Dragonmaster1996 (talk) 05:24, 16 February 2018 (UTC) Dragonmaster1996 (talk) 05:24, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Dragonmaster1996: "Shades of gray" is already a box at the bottom of the article. Where specifically do you want to add it? Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 05:51, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Per WP:CATDEF, White and Black generally define the extremes of gray-shading and White is already included in the cat Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 21:00, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
