Coloring of "Toxic" column of table

[edit]

It seems a bit backwards that those alloys which are toxic get a positive-connoted green color, and those which have no toxic components have a negative-connoted looking red color. Last time I checked, things being non-toxic is generally good! I know there are a lot of people who have strong ideological attachment to leaded solder, but I think mapping toxic = green, non-toxic = red is a bridge too far :D :D 70.235.159.137 (talk) 15:58, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Table order

[edit]

The table previously did not appear to have any consistent order in source - perhaps it was due to concatenation of independent sources? No comment to explain the order either. Manually reordered the entries in source. Still somewhat inconsistent, but sticking to the principle that all alloys of the same component list should be grouped together, and ordered by one component. Alternative ordering is still available by sorting the column. 193.203.196.117 (talk) 11:40, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your work improving this article.
It looks like your changes are noncontroversial and unlikely to be reverted. Would you consider trying to make a few more changes before you hit the "Publish" button. It will generate fewer log entries that way. The way you are doing it is slightly annoying. If that is inconvenient then keep doing it the way you are doing it.
