@Praseodymium-141: I will take on the review, however, it will take me awhile to read the whole article.
Thanks for taking up the review! I might not be very free over the next few weeks, so I might take some time to respond to comments. 141Pr {contribs} 07:49, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
General comments
[edit]- From GAR, combine all the subsections at the section 'Occurrence', and try to make it more smooth flowing between them. Keres🌕Luna edits! 04:30, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
- In the safety section, 'results has recently been disputed', Avoid 'recently' and add a specific time frame.
- In the history section, 'variety of colors, and as a result he named the' add a comma between 'result' and 'he'.
- In the history section, 'most vanadium ore was' replace 'ore was' with 'ores were'.
- In the history section, 'by American Vanadium Company from'; add 'the' between 'by' and 'American'.
- In the compounds section, '2–5. In aqueous solution'; add 'an' between 'In' and 'aqueous'.
- Is this written in British or American English? I saw the word 'colour' in the compounds section which is a British English word.
- I have fixed the issues that I could find. If there is any I missed, please can you point it out to me so I can fix it? 141Pr {contribs} 11:48, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
- Would be nice if you specified which dialect of English it is on in the talk page. Keres🌕Luna edits! 13:53, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
- In the oxyanion section, 'phosphate.[23] Beside that, this anion'; replace 'Beside' with 'Besides'.
- In the oxyanion section, 'with activity of some specific'; add 'the' between 'with' and 'activity'.
- In the oxyanion section, 'predominant at vanadium concentration'; add 'a' between 'predominant' and 'vanadium'.
- In the halide derivatives section, 'for polymerization of dienes' add 'the' between 'for' and 'polymerization'.
- In the organometallic compounds section, add 'the' at the start of the section.
- In the organometallic compounds section, replace 'well developed' with 'well-developed'.
- In the history section, 'The isolation of vanadium metal was difficult.', why? Keres🌕Luna edits! 01:04, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Praseodymium-141: You may have missed the above comment. Keres🌕Luna edits! 17:17, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
- Done - added reason in the article. 141Pr {contribs} 17:08, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
- In the occurrence section, 'the 20th century a large', add a comma between 'century' and 'large'.
- In the occurrence section, 'discovered, the Minas Ragra' add 'in' between 'discovered' and 'the'.
- In the occurrence section, add a hyphen between the words 'two thirds'.
- In the occurrence section, no need for a comma between 'slag' and 'and'.
- In the occurrence section, remove 'in' in the phrase 'bauxite and in deposits'.
- In the alloy section, 'aluminium' is British-English, replace with 'aluminum'. There is two times that this happens in this section, change accordingly.
- Done 141Pr {contribs} 16:48, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
- Reverted by DePiep because WP:ALUM. 141Pr {contribs} 17:09, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
- In the other uses section, 'Batteries of the type were', replace 'the' with 'this'.
- In the other uses section, add a hyphen between 'lithium' and 'ion'.
- In the biological roles section, 'marine environments than terrestrial.' add 'ones' after 'terrestrial'.
- In the vanadoenzymes section, perhaps replace 'A number of species' with 'Several'.
- In the Vanadium accumulation in tunicates section, add a hyphen between 'vanadium' and 'binding'.
- In the Mammals section, replace 'have' with 'has'.
- I think 'have' is the right word here because it is plural. 141Pr {contribs} 16:48, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
- In the research section, 'treatment effects, but' remove a comma between 'effects' and 'but'. Also, no need for a comma after 'biosignature'.
I think that would be it for my grammar and prose comments. Keres🌕Luna edits! 15:54, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
Images
[edit]- Recommend changing the vanadium pentoxide image to something more high quality, such as Vanadium pentoxide powder.jpg.
- Perhaps too many images in the Production section, maybe remove one image.
- Done: Removed etched piece of vanadium. 141Pr {contribs} 16:21, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
Facts
[edit]- The phrase 'It is oxidized in air at about 933 K (660 °C, 1220 °F), although an oxide passivation layer forms even at room temperature.' is unreferenced.
- The phrase 'Electron capture is the main decay mode for isotopes lighter than 51V. For the heavier ones, the most common mode is beta decay. The electron capture reactions lead to the formation of element 22 (titanium) isotopes, while beta decay leads to element 24 (chromium) isotopes.' is unreferenced too.
- Same problem here: 'Vanadic acid, H3VO4 exists only at very low concentrations because protonation of the tetrahedral species [H2VO4]− results in the preferential formation of the octahedral [VO2(H2O)4]+ species. In strongly acidic solutions, pH < 2, [VO2(H2O)4]+ is the predominant species, while the oxide V2O5 precipitates from solution at high concentrations. The oxide is formally the acid anhydride of vanadic acid. The structures of many vanadate compounds have been determined by X-ray crystallography.'
- The first part of the section Halide Derivatives is unreferenced.
- Last sentence of 'Coordination compounds' is unreferenced. Keres🌕Luna edits! 15:22, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
Sorry for the late responses, I have been working on my own GAN, but I am free now. Here are some more comments. Keres🌕Luna edits! 15:47, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- Second paragraph of the oxyanion section still looks unreferenced.
- Last sentence of the halide derivatives section still is unreferenced.
- Same comment for the coordination compounds section.

Still doing this... Keres🌕Luna edits! 03:25, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- I don't have access to most of the refs, so I don't know if I'll be able to do this one... 141Pr {contribs} 07:38, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- Some of them are journal articles, the page number should be there freely available when you click on the doi link. Keres🌕Luna edits! 13:43, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
@Praseodymium-141: I see that the refs have been cleaned up by another person. I don't see any more issues, so I will pass this article. Keres🌕Luna edits! 23:22, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
