Cr(CO)5Ne
editCr(CO)5Ne is not counted as a true neon compound here, but the related W(CO)5Ar is counted as a true compound at the article argon. They must be both counted, or both not counted, but I'm not sure which is the right way. Nucleus hydro elemon (talk) 08:23, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- I think it should be considered a true compound indeed. Double sharp (talk) 11:21, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Infobox's Neon Spectral Lines seem clearly incorrect
editSpectral Lines image seem incorrect (wrong element I'm assuming) Logically presented lines should add up to Red-Orange-Yellow light visible at the top of that very infobox, so should be predominantly of either of those colors (like the one included in the page text itself) Repnihrefs (talk) 20:26, 7 March 2026 (UTC)
- Possibly swapped with Xenon, as it infobox emission lines seem mostly in yellow-red Repnihrefs (talk) 20:56, 7 March 2026 (UTC)
