message: I don't think Flash really qualifies as a vector graphics editor, at least not in the same sense as Illustrator or Freehand.  Unless someone objects, I'm going to remove it from the list. madoka 22:52, Oct 25, 2004 (UTC)
: Since nobody complained, I went ahead and removed Flash. madoka 15:28, Nov 2, 2004 (UTC)
Flash is a more sophisticated vector graphic editor than most on that list because it includes bitmap-style editing features in a vector graphic format. It can also import and export to the popular vector graphic programs in vector format. It's vector graphics that enable flash to animate so quickly with low bandwidth on the web. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Artsmartconsulting (talk • contribs) 17:59, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Flash

message: As a professional designer and a design instructor I have to say this sentence:"Modern vector editors are capable of, and often preferable for, designing unique documents (like flyers or brochures) of up to a few pages; it's only for longer or more standardized documents that the page layout programs are more suitable." is not correct. It is true that vector editors can make single page documents and a few (including illustrator CS4) can make multipage documents, but I would not use the word preferable. I suggest this replacement: "Vector editors are capable of creating standalone graphics, graphics to be used in page layout or web design programs, and single page designs. Newer vector editors have added multipage support, though they have not traditionally been used for that purpose." What do others think?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.202.70.11 (talk) 16:36, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

message: The section Classical Era begins with the statement "Because silver" is if the connection between lead production was obvious, which it isn't.  I therefore investigated the reference 130 provided, which conflicts with a statement later in the section.  In the reference it states that despite the existence of silver with lead, they believe that leads main connection with silver is using lead in the silver extraction process, which they did regardless of the silver ore.  That conflicts with the statement that most lead was extracted just because they were looking for silver.
   I don't know anything about this, so can somebody please have a look at it ?
IceDragon64 (talk) 23:55, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

"Lead came into use as an exchange medium" is in the sentence that uses reference 130, which describes the extraction of silver from Galena using the properties of lead.
