# Talk:Bismuth

My IP address was unblocked in mid-August.  Just letting you know that there was this IP address called 206.72.231.194 adding poorly sourced abundance ranks in the occurrence section.  This page should been protected for a few months.  If my IP address was unblocked, I could’ve requested semi-protection for page “Bismuth” for about a month.  My IP address was blocked at that time, so I couldn’t request semi-protection.  It turned out that the problem was solved without semi-protection.  206.72.231.194 Only made two edits on page “Bismuth”. 2603:8080:D03:89D4:74A2:9D9F:8701:DBDB (talk) 20:51, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

The Netherlands, Denmark, England, Wales, the United States, and many other countries now prohibit the use of lead shot for the hunting of wetland birds, as many birds are prone to lead poisoning owing to mistaken ingestion of lead (instead of small stones and grit) to aid digestion, or even prohibit the use of lead for all hunting, such as in the Netherlands.
I read that Trump, in his first term, rolled back what was an Obama presidency ban on the use of lead shot in national parks. 107.77.194.7 (talk) 22:45, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
