Talk:List of boiling and freezing information of solvents

message: Instead of "boiling constant," the more common name seems to be "boiling point elevation constant." This information is not in any of the articles (is it?), nor is there currently a way to incorporate it into the chemboxes (is there?). Ardric47 02:04, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I am therefore removing the prod template and suggest merging the information (somehow). Ardric47 02:05, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Proposed Deletion

message: What does the (-) following some of the values?  This should be explained under the table.  --LakeHMM 04:52, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've fixed that using a different dash character that doesn't interfere with table rendition. Karl Hahn (T) (C) 23:51, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "(-)"?? 

message: Where did this data come from? Please post a reference. Karl Hahn (T) (C) 23:53, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I broke out some books and found references for some of the data (and added some new solvents where I found data). I've added a data-source column and filled it in where I could. There are still some unreferenced entries. Anybody who has references for these, please fill them in. Karl Hahn (T) (C) 04:29, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Article needs reference(s)

message: Some of the information listed in this table is already present in the table in "solvent" article. Why not merge them into one single table?
Also, some compounds listed in this table, such as camphor, Naphthalene are solid in room temperature. They are not solvents.
Some commonly used solvents such as methanol, dimethylformamide or tetrahydrofuran are not present in table too - they already contained in the "solvent" article, which is another reason to merge these into a single table.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.1.215.200 (talk) 20:07, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree with merging. It would be better to expand this list, and just keep a short table of the most common solvents in the solvent article. Perhaps this article could be expanded in scope by adding other information such as dielectric constants, and renaming it to list of solvents. Finally, there's nothing wrong with having solvents which are solids (or even gases!) at room temperature. Not all experiments are done at room temperature, you know... --Itub (talk) 13:19, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Releventness of this table / Proposing merging with the "solvent" article 

message: I don't have a reference available but from what I could deduce some of these numbers are wrong. Also should the cyroscopic constants be negative?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.66.1.95 (talk) 15:33, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't panic, it was just that someone vandalized this page recently. Such is the nature of Wikipedia. I've reverted those changes. --Itub (talk) 11:44, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Assessment comment

message: I've tried to get https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Sorting working, and it may work for positive numbers, but it's definitely using lexicographic order for https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Tables#Negative_numbers, but that may be because the dashes used are non-numeric.
The numeric dash issue can be solved with a space between the start of the line and the standard dash.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcint (talk • contribs) 02:39, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
