message: The discussion of 9,10-dehydroanthracene and 1,4-dehydroanthracene as possible reduction products would be clearer with a diagram showing the numbering of the carbons. Dirac66 (talk) 14:18, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

message: The reference for "Unlike many other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), anthracene is not classified as carcinogenic as listed by the U.S. agency OSHA" leads to a sigma aldrich page that doesn't have any data on it. All the other sources I have found say that it is a carcinogen, such as an actual sigma aldrich page (http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/help-welcome/hazard-and-precautionary-statements.html#pictogram). As such I will be removing the statementDeadlyops (talk) 00:33, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

message: It occurred to me that people may confuse it with Anthropocene, and my suspicions would seem to be confirmed by the existence of Anthrocene as a redirect. 88.145.189.130 (talk) 20:11, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hatnote required? 

message: The compound was discovered by Auguste Laurent in 1835. I think the articles on his derivatives ought to make mention of him and the significance of the compound. This compound was very important in the development of the atomic theory in the 1800s. There is precedent for the inclusion of at minimum a pithy historical discussion in articles of this nature - see the article on 1,2-dichloroethane. The crystalline nature of the stuff was interestingly also very important as well. See DeMilt, Clara, "Auguste Laurent, Founder of Modern Chemistry." Chymia, Vol. 4 (1953), p. 85-114. http://www.jstor.org/stable/27757164. These compounds are also discussed in the later memoires of Jean-Baptiste Dumas, Gerhardt, and Pasteur. 24.170.207.220 (talk) 06:46, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
